Those ones off eBay are shyte, they're not greenglides and not even worth £50 apparently. Can't remember who it was, I think someone bought one and said they are just normal plastic rather than teflon?
I just got myself a genuine greenglide for my westpak wand, it is MILES better than the rip-off teflon glide I had on it previously. Well worth the money

ha ha, like it. ;D ;D

Charles, derek is always up for a bit of bartering. If you ask nicely, you might get it for £200.
As for genuine greenglides, from what I've read that's a bit of a bone of contention? (Court cases etc)

ive looked at the ones on ebay.. look good but alot of ppl do say ya better of with greenglides.
Ive never know an industry more prone to court cases lol i wish they would sort it soon.

I've tried 2 different glides on my wand from Alltec and neither of them fit it. I would wait until Alltec can supply you with one, at least they'll provide the correct one :)

I have one of these and it's OK. Mine's white though, this colour looks awful.
Overall I think I prefer the wand with this rather than without. Although I haven't carried out a direct comparison I do think t speeds drying up slightly and it certainly makes wanding easier on the back.
I have siliconed mine onto my Alltec wand with no problems.

I got one too for my Alltec wand, I had to send the glide back though as it just wouldn't fit :(

I soaked mine in boiling water for a good few minutes then picked it straight out (not being Superman I wore gloves, but these are optional for true hardcases) and slid it on.
The first time I used it I didn't like it as it gives less feedback (a bit like power-steering in the old days) so I took it off during the job.
I gave it another go a while later but this time siliconed all around it so not to lose suction. I stuck with it and now I'm used to it I'll keep it on. As said, it makes wanding so much easier and I am sure speeds up drying.
