Ninja bucket damaging blades

Hey 

The last while I've been getting a notch in the middle of my squeegee blades that cause lines. I buy blades in longer lengths then cut them to size, so i thought maybe that the quality of the longer lengths wasnt great, cos the notches looked a bit like seams where one piece of rubber was joined to the next.

After a long time, i have finally realised its because the ninja bucket on a belt is too big a holder for normal ergotec squeegees and so they rest in the holster on the rubber! So that notch was wear... i find this very annoying. Ive never heard that mentioned.

So just wondering has anyone else had this issue?im considering either changing over all my squeegees to ninja ones,or getting a different bucket on a belt. Its annoying how hard it is to find a black bucket on a belt that holds more than one squeegee. 

I saw there is a little rubber insert unger have made for the ninja bucket to prevent this issue. Is it any good?

Morning Larry, I had this problem with the ettorre boab and squeegee aswell, I stuffed a rubber squeegee handle sleeve down to protect the blade,  same principle, worked a treat

Cheers man. Thats great

Glue an old piece of squeegee rubber over the divider where it rubs

Job done

To be honest I think they all do I used the ettorey ones years and they always caused damage to the rubber
