Lee - i don’t do that much trad , maybe a handful of internal jobs per month. In your opinion, what is the the best squeegee to use which minimises detailing?
I currently just use an unger standard squeegee but I always have a lot of detailing to do!
Cheers 👍

You can dog-ear a channel to min detailing or you can buy products like the  Unger S-Plus or Liquidator 2.0. The Legend is more a storefront 'big glass all day' squeegee. With its tapered ends, it fits snug into corners.

With practice and the right soap to water ratio, you can perform min detail type work with a regular channel. As always it is to try and error to what or which product gives you the outcome you want or are happy with.

Every house is like a 1 off no thanks,the savvy ones do mainly shops it’s less hassle for them and they can still earn good money. I bet there’s a lot more competition over there for shops and restaurants.

The way they we’re  working on those ex council-council houses they’d need to charge a lot the rate they work,IMO the way they cleaned traditionally they looked in experienced I’d give the blond one a job though 😂

Big difference between the way we work in the U.K. compared to the US.  They don’t clean monthly or 8 weekly over there and the screens must be a complete nightmare.
