Window Washers
There is a wide selection of washer sleeves on the market these days, and all of them are good for different reasons. Microfibre sleeves utilise the cleaning power of microfibre technology to give you as much contact with the surface as possible. Sleeves with abrasive pads are useful for windows with stubborn or caked on impurities. (Note, abrasive sleeves should not be used on the new soft glass, comfort glass or low e glass that has hit the market in recent years ) Many sleeves have acrylic fibres for increased durability and a longer life.
With the exception of the Wagtail washers, you have the luxury of being able to mix and match sleeves and T-bars. Whilst we usually recommend that you stick to the one brand, if you already have, for example, an Ettore T-bar, you could purchase an Unger sleeve and it will still fit.
When using the washer, its a good idea to put enough detergent in the water to make enough suds that when you wash the window it leaves a very visible suds on the glass. This really helps you when squeegeeing off. You know where you are up too.
