Can all you Trad guys and ex Trad, Squeegee with both hands, im really good with my right but shocking with my left is it something to practice or is it not going to happen, it would save moving the ladder a hundred times

Practice. It will work in time. Everything is harder at first.

Get a left handed squeegee  ;D.
I'm better with my right but can use both. Just practice. Start really slowly with your left and then the speed will come with practice. Don't expect to be as quick with your left, straight away.

All our apprentices have to work for the first 6 months with their right hand tied behind their backs.

Makes for an interesting drive home though.

I'm left handed.  You soon learn to squeegee with both hands when it saves ladder climbs.  Was always slightly slower with my right though.

did you buy a right handed squeegie to make it easier?
