Best type of squeegee to use ?
« on: March 26, 2010, 03:38:31 pm »
 There seem to be a great many on the internet but which ones are worth purchasing ? Unger/ Ettore seem to be popular but are there any which are particularly effective and do the job for most of you guys ?

I find that a Mono Fillament works best for me.  ;D ;D
Thought I'd get that in before anyone else did.  ;D

On a serious note, I like the feel of the unger Ergotec.  ;)
I can remember when waking up stiff in the morning was a good thing.

Hi all,

We do use Ettore Super Systems and Wagtail pivotal squeegees.

Hi,

Not a lot in it between Pulex Ettore & Unger. Horses for courses. I just happen to use Ettore Pro Grip.

 Cookie Monster Can The Wagtail Whirlwind be used for domestic?

I use wagtails now but the ettore ledge-eze handle with stainless channel are a very good combo. ;)

Whirlwind for me. Not the most comfortable handle in the world but the wash/wipe action is brilliant. Applicator and squeegee in one.

     Whenever i try to work at speed i always leave watermarks of some kind- or miss the top right hand corners.
