Title: Magic Glides
Post by: Everbrite on January 30, 2006, 03:26:49 pm

Just fitted those Teflon  Magic Glides onto my 12" wand and what a big difference they make, tried them today for the first time there is less drag much better and faster.

Gary

there for putting on your feet so you can move faster  ;D

No try here http://www.greenglides.com/ (http://www.greenglides.com/)

ive been using mine for ages it dont half save your back on big jobs, but takes some getting used too I like the wand sticking to the floor like sh** 1 t to a blanket feels like it's working, but they come into there best on hard floors  ;)

This is where i got mine and yes they DO leave the carpets much dryer as the gap between the glides are much smaller.

nope Garry thats the main bit I dont like  :P got mine from Hydramster, use on a TM

didnt think they would dry better until I couldent get them off my wand and used them for a flood, very impressed  :)

the other things they dont clean right up to edges or in corner of door shuts but if you edge with a hand tool it dont make much diffrence and you cant get good agitation on the carpet, but I tend use a good pile brush on me vac wich lifts it nice any hoo
