The above site gives a description and a picture. I have never used one but talked to a guy that had worked as a w/c in australia. He was doing rope work on big office blocks etc, said they were the dogs b's I would like to give one a try. I use the backflip as a single pass tool on most of my work, this wagtail seems to be an improvment on it. DAi

The Wagtail is one of those things you either love or hate.
We have sold hundreds of them over the past six years and most people order time after time. Some though say they dont like the swivel action, its a matter of taste and you need to practice a little to get it perfect.
They are really excelent for using on internal glazing as the water is caught by the applicator strip, below the blade.
With practice when used on a extension pole you fly through work.

I had a drink recently with a w/c near here who swears by the one he uses.
I have searched every where in the UK for one to try out as this w/c (who reads this forum) bought his in America.
As yet, I've found no where in the UK that sells them.
I've looked on the Omnipole website and maybe I'm missing something but I can't find them there.
Any one know of a company or a link?
Cheers

Hi Gaza
Der.........
I've found it tonight.
For some reason those gremlins that hide things like car keys and then put them back under your nose without you seeing them do it removed the Waigtail from the Onipole website and then put it back there tonight.

Yup Gaza
It's those gremlins. They do it all the time.
They do it to embarise you.
Happens all the time to me.

I have a wagtail which I use most days. Once you get the hang of it the results with a pole are good as you can use the S method.
I do not use it to clean windows as a two in one tool without the pole as I find an applicator and squeegee better for easily reached windows.
We must have another drink soon Ross.
