Title: Ettore backflip or the Unger vice versa?
Post by: michael papworth on October 19, 2008, 07:48:52 pm: Hiyya Ya'all.

I'm back online after moving to a new house and Orange taking three weeks to get my phone and broadband up and running again!

I'm now doing quite a bit of commercial shop windows work. Currently I'm using two poles - one with a scrubber and the other with a squeegee. This seems to be a waste of time and effort, so I'm looking for a combination tool.

Which is better, the Ettore backflip or the Unger vice versa?
