If you mean the green unger rubbers then don't bother.
I bought a pack of pre cut green rubbers and they are rubbish,they don't last half as long as standard one's.
Not sure if I had a bad batch,put one in a blade yesterday and it didn't even last a day they wear very quick.
Gave most away.

Worst rubber ever, the blading edge isn't flat on any of the 10 I got free from them.

I was given a few of the green rubbers to try; they work but are very fragile; I don't recommend them one bit!!
Come and talk dirty to us!!!

I bought 100 pre cut from cleaning spot what a load of crap, you can't even turn them around as they get to knackered on the first side all the edging just wears away. Also they don't take all the soap off the windows, I used about 6 then thought I'm not having this so got onto cleaning spot and to be fair I'd had them for around 6 weeks as now it's more pole work than squeegee and they did given money back so I purchased the 12" unger pre cut black blades which are sooooo much better and you can turn them around.

You bought a hundred before trying them?
