Does anyone use this, if so is it any good? Been thinking about getting one for a while, and ive got a very large internal job coming up and thought it might be worth getting one.

I love the wagtail but Im not a fan of the flipper bit. The wagtail its self is excellent for internal high level glass and really easy to use from day one. I found the flipper (mop) bit didn't hold much water and when you flip it it splashes the glass you have just done! Wagtail do a mop which works in the same way, I prefer this.

Get one you'll love it.

So better to get them seperatly? I thought the flipper maybe better for high level, ie just one pole.
Did you order direct from Oz?

Also, can you use any rubber in the channel?

I thought that too but just couldn't get on with the flipper. The flipper is a small piece of fleece which covers the squeegee blade. I didn't find it very good at holding water or scrubbing to be honest. The time saving is minimal as a proper mop is quick because of the coverage and bigger surface in contact with the glass.

I got mine from OZ. Postage is very quick

 I am a huge fan of the old Wagtail combo, I don't think they make them any more so I guard my two like gold.
With the combo, I can do the whole of the insides of a large pub/restaurant with one fill of my B.O.B.
Glyn at Omnipole had some, I bought my last one from him.
The combo is a single pass tool, it has a pad made of the same stuff they use for paint pads, and the blade is a centimeter behind it. The handle swivels left to right so it's very easy on the wrist.
Without doubt the best bit of trad gear I ever used.

Just seen the demo on youtube, i can see what you mean, doesnt look that great. I'll order the standard squeegee and mop. Can you use just the one handle and use a standard channel, save buying different sizes?

Dai,did you ever get around to converting your `pad`.?

No Lewis, I still use it as it came. I have been using it with that dishwasher rinse aid in my solution for years now and it's brilliant, it's amazing how little water it needs to do a good job.

[trevor perry]

The channel that comes with it is aluminum but it will take any rubber.  Its not a standard channel Im afraid
