A few years ago in an American army camp supermarket (The PX), I once purchased rubbers labelled "Trojan Condoms - For the Larger Man".

I did it to impress the pretty sales assistant.

I still own the condoms.

Zues,

I have ordered squeegee rubbers in large amounts before and to my dissapointment some of them were damaged. They had little nicks and left a few marks. Couldn't use them. Only a few from 144 at a time. :( 

It is difficult to tell at the time if a rubber is perfect. I laugh when my workers and I tell each other" Hey, do you need any new rubbers?" :o
Right now I have two women and two men that do windows only. It is funny sometimes to talk about rubbers.

Anyway, most rubbers are perfect, but I don't think it is any particular brand.

Have fun and be careful out there!  :-*
