Best squeegie for insides?
« on: November 13, 2008, 07:14:56 pm »
Had a fairly big and dirty old house today to clean inside. Windows wern't too small but because they were fairly deep i struggled to get the blade at the right angle near the edges. Is there a purpose made squeegie for these kind of jobs?

Sometimes a window cleaning spray and a couple of cloths are quicker than a squeegie; when it comes to small panes of inside glass.

In the past I've tried cutting down squeegies to fit small awkward windows, but it's a waste of time; you still end up 'polishing them' no matter how good you are with a sqeegie.  

The best way is to spray and handbash; brute stregnth and ignorance always wins!

the wagtail is fairly good as its quite a large headed squeegee so its like using a 'ledger', but they do take quite a bit of getting used to. they are worth sticking with tho.

the first one i ordered took 2 weeks, the second ones i ordered only took 4 days, which i was quite impressed with.
