Title: Hard or soft rubber
Post by: seamus campbell on April 21, 2012, 10:04:43 pm

Do most of you lads use hard or soft rubbers in your squeege, ive just had some hard ones delivered by mistake and ive only used soft before but was wondering whats the difference. its a pack of ten strips so dont want to open and cut if they are no good

Strangely enough, when I was trad only I found that the 'hard' rubbers wore much quicker than the 'soft' ones. I still trad about 15% of my ground floor work and it's still Pulex 'soft' every time for me.

Im 99% wfp but this question came up years ago. From what I remember 'hard for the summer and soft for the winter' (due to temperature)
