i find pulex soft rubbers really nice to use normally, but the last two times i got some, the rubber was different im sure. it seemed to wear down mega quickly and split within the first days use on normal cleanish double glazing!

im gonna order some ettore soft rubber soon, aint used it before and have heard its good stuff!!

does anyone else get a nic in a hard rubber blade when using thier BOAB?
I know you can get something that fits on your BOAB, but does your blade slide in easily? or is it more of a pain?
