put loads on and squeegee it like a mad man or squeegee one hand following your scrubber/soaper in your other hand so your wetting just in front of squeegee

Dripping wet applicator, also GG4 does not dry out as quick as dish soaps seem to.

Use that if needed to clean on the straight sun light.
The best is to choose your time better when the Windows are on shade side. I do charge extra if working on the shiny side, it is much slower work.
Or if there are two workers with extension poles one wets and the other use squeegee.

On large hot glass I scrub the window with soaked trad scrubber first then blade with the Wag flipper. With the pad being real wet on wet glass it almost acts like a one pass and keeps the glass moist as you blade. Particularly handy when using a pole.
i fiel sory for my work m8 he is 73 he brought a wagtail one pass and 2 standerd wagtails flipper slimline and one wagtail pc and he hates them he just cant get on with them,its frustrates him as i luv mine and im now working a lot faster /emoticons/biggrin.png i mite buy one off him and have it as a fixed no pivet flipper for domistic ,its looking like he may retier soon that will be a sad day but will also be a blesing in a nother way as he holds me bk a bit some times any way bk to the wagtail, how does every one rate the exceller compaired to the wagtail flipper!!!

The only ones out there at the moment are prototypes. I've been using one for over a month now. Smoother quicker pivot, angle change (10,25,40) is really handy. Ability to lock and use as a standard fixed handle squeegee may appeal to some (not me). Ability to quickly change channels has advantages. New Liquidator clips that lock and will not come off. Heavier pad excellent for pole work. Pad clips enable you to change from top to bottom flip in about 5 seconds and will never come off in use...bi-component handle has excellent feel and grip. I prefer it to all of my Wagtails. The finished production model will be fine tuned and an improvement over my excellent prototype so you wouldn't go wrong adding at least one to the arsenal...

I am a bit ambivalent buying one when it comes out, morrman let me Down Big time With the original liquidator, but Polzn blade Got fabricated a Modded channel to suit his needs (nothing bad about it but i have never heard of anyone Else still use their liquidator) when back for my Quick and trusted sorbos
the only thing i dont like on the wagtail is the sharp channels on the ends as i scrached a pain of glass not long ago as it fliped to one side and just cault the glass
a plastic end cap would be nice like the liquidator but with out that curved in bit that makes the ends of the rubber were out to quick like dog ear'd stile im not a fan of them i like standerd channels i hated the unger s channel and the liquidator end clips

Liquidators just save me the aggravation of modding my own channels anymore and the 0° feature is great
I use the older channels with the "clips that fall off" apparently and have never lost a clip or had any problems even with the original prototype which i still use also
I have 5 different sizes and use all when tradding
