Great job as always Trad-Man! Not only do you do a great job teaching us new tricks of the trade but also products of the trade. We appreciate you and thank you for all your support videos.
Thank you kindly mate! Really appreciate the kind comment.
I'm honestly happy to help folks when I can and I'm really passionate about the industry so it's all good 😁👍🏻
Thanks again for an honest and polite review of this pole. Looks amazing as you have said. Cant wait to see if Dr Angle is soon to be attached to it as well. from Australia .
Cheers buddy!! Really glad you liked the video 👍🏻
Using this pole for 5 months as trad pole...very happy whit it 👍👍👍
That's awesome!
Hi thanks for this video as this pole is on my xmas list 😁....many thanks and love your channel 10/10
Thanks buddy!! Yeah its a brilliant pole, I use it everyday 😉
Wow!! This has just got me sorted.. I needed a water fed pole Aswel as a trad pole so guess what I'll be investing in!!!
Yeah and if you need a longer one, go for the phantom 18 or 22 👍🏻
Great Review Pete!
There is an adapter available for purchase over here in Australia that will take the Dr Angle by using the blue clips supplied.
I’ll send you a photo when I get a sec.
Perfect matey thanks!!
Nice 👍🏻 I love those phantom clamps
Yeah they are sweet!
Have the 22ft for wfp using since January it's a nice pole even at higher ranges
Is that the hybrid or the carbon your using mate
Nice review. Those clamps look sweet and the unger tip in the same colour is great... shame they dont have them in blue! or do they?
Thanks buddy! Having a few colours to choose from would be sweet!
Great job 👍
Cheers buddy!! I'm looking forward to seeing your interviews!!
TRAD - MAN hope they have come out alright. I still haven’t got round to checking the footage yet
@@squeakycleandave1 looking forward to it
Great vid!
Would the 12' pole be enough for a modern 2 storey house and 4m x 3m conservatory, or would a 15' or 18' be better.
the window above the conservatory is the only (slightly) awkward one.
cheers.
Anything above the ground level I would go for something longer than a 12 ft pole. I use a 12 ft phantom trad from window cleaning warehouse, and that's for my low work. For anything higher I've got a 20ft carbon phantom pole and a 30 ft Gardiner with 10ft extension if needed
I'll definitely be ordering one of these. I am finding the Unger poles quite stiff to unscrew, but I don't see the traditional adaptor on the site.
I take it this will be coming on their site in the next few days? Or is it something have to make?
Still waiting on the samurai boab WCW said they where going to start selling months ago on there Twitter, I am guessing that's off the cards now.
Yeah buddy they are launching there new website today so may take a day or so to appear 😁👍🏻
As soon as it's available I'll have a link in the description to
Great trad pole, even little me can use it and not complain about it 😜
Yup no muscles required for this pole 😂😜
Hi, I use the unger Nilite pole. It also has that little black piece that connects to the locking cone. My problem with using the Moerman excelarator, is that the locking cone spins. That black adapter doesn’t allow the locking pins to seat properly. So it doesn’t work well with the Moerman excelarator.
Thanks for the info buddy.
Can't say I've had that issue, I use an excelerator on it everyday 👍🏻
hello Pete , when i get one ( 100% FOR TRAD ) do i need to buy the unger attachment with insert that i seen in this video or do i just buy the face fit angle neck adapter and the precision angle and combine the two which i seen on another video ?
I would get the angle adaptor, gives you more options
I actually like the unger fitting though, so versatile.
Very much so 😁👍🏻
Does that unger/facelift red cone adapter fit any moerman tools at the moment??
Yes it fits moerman handles. The moerman handles have 2 locking holes, the larger hole is for moerman locking cone and the smaller hole is for Unger 👍🏻
Thanks for another great vid, mate. I foggily remember, that a couple of years ago, you made a review on another pole that can be used both as a wfp and trad tool. I think it was from some small Scottish manufacturer. Is also that Scottish pole still on the market? And if so, how would you compare it with the new one from WCW? Many thanks!
This pole is miles better than the teleskopic pole I reviewed ages ago. This phantom pole is in a different league. 👍🏻
@@TradMan Many thanks!
@@danielsondanielson very welcome
Hi Pete, thanks for the review, what setup did you use to get the Moerman excelerator to fit this pole. Thanks.
Hi 👍🏻
The moerman tool fits on the unger end cone
TRAD - MAN THE WINDOW CLEANER Thank Pete, I think I’ll order the same set up you have.
@@gerardbduff awesome 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Hi Peter can you get the phantom hybrid 18 ft to use as a trad pole. Cheers 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
You can any of the phantom pole range with the Unger trad adaptor 👍🏻
Thanks you one more time!If i buy the 25ft what adaptator i need to traditional?You have link?
It's a wfp to Unger trad end cone adaptor. If you email/call window cleaning warehouse they will sort you out buddy 👍🏻
TRAD - MAN thanks !
Nice
It sure is!
Hello,i know what the size of the phantom traditional in Retracted lengt of the 8ft and 12ft?
The details are all on WCW website buddy
u dont send to netherlands i see :(
Please help with this dilemma.....ive always used fixed head squeegee currently Unger ergo tech Ninja, its been a very good bit of kit but it seems everyone one is wag tailing right now. My dilemma is which to go for???? 18yrs in the game always something new to learn😁. Cheers Andrew
You have two options really, the wagtail has been around a long time, very basic tool, and not particularly well put together. Personally I would say if your going to get a good pivoting squeegee, get the moerman excelerator 2.0. Much better design and more versatile 👌
Hi thats great thanks i was leaning towards that way of thinking, im quite excited about it as it does seem to elevate the fanning style of trad cleaning, also the swivel action is going on alot in wfp style of Cleaning too so im giving that ago this week too, i will try anything once if it makes the job more efficient and also stretches its scope of task abilities too.
Kindest of thanks for getting back to me as it is much appreciated mate.
Cheers Andrew 😊😊😊
Very welcome 🙏
Sounds like a pole you would use when just starting out on wfp. When established then the only way to go is a full carbon pole. ( My humble opinion)
If you were to go straight to a full carbon pole, such as a Gardiners Extreme Pole, then a pole like the one your demonstrating, would feel really quite heavy!
Thanks as always for your videos Peter, love them ✌☘
Thanks buddy!
I agree carbon is beter, it will pay off👍
@@glazenwasbedrijfkosik8987 Yeah for longer than 12ft then defo 100% carbon for sure 👍🏻😁
@@TradManbut carbon poles livetime is olso longer, saves money on the long time.
@@glazenwasbedrijfkosik8987 true carbon is very durable but also costs alot more. For a short trad pole you don't need to spend hundreds on it. When the poles are longer ie 18 ft and above then yes defo worth the money to invest in a good fully carbon pole 👍🏻
Moerman exelerator can not on this?
Great video!
Could you take a whole trad route with only a 3,7m/12f pole? For us newbies that cant afford a truck and carry 5 ladders ;-( !
thanks for the videos
Storefronts yeah 👍🏻
TRAD - MAN THE WINDOW CLEANER what Bout residential?
@@danieljerloew low level yeah, but personally I wouldn't be relying on a trad pole to get a job cleaned 100% nothing beats getting nose to glass I'm afraid
TRAD - MAN THE WINDOW CLEANER i feel you ! Thanks. By the Way did you have a chance to try the samurai boab ? I really would love it
Yeah I tried it, didn't work well with the liquidators, but works better with standard squeegees 👍🏻
Hi mate, been looking at poles for traditional… I currently have a 16ft unger optiloc and the thing is almost unusable when extended for 1st floor windows. I don’t think at 12ft this phantom pole will do the job either…
Can you recommend a pole that would be suitable for 1st floor windows whilst stood at ground level… ideally wanting to avoid going fully carbon as it’s too pricey…
Cheers
I would save and get a carbon pole in all honesty buddy. It's night a day difference using full carbon to a hybrid. I use to use aluminium for high work so I know what you mean. This 12ft hybrid is better for ground level or just above.
I personally use a phantom carbon pole. Not too pricy and lasts forever. So pop some pennies aside each month until you can get carbon, honesty don't get hybrid for higher stuff its too bendy!
All the best pal 😉
@@TradMan thanks for taking the time to reply bud!
What do you use to connect up Moerman tools to your carbon? If I bought a phantom carbon would a dr angle easily fit on it so I can attach my Moerman tools?
I don't use Dr angle as it's terribly weak and lock button tends to jam.
I personally use one of two methods.
1. Easy method is to get the wfp to trad adaptor (unger tip with locking button) then you can take the tool off and on no probs.
2. Is to use a wfp adaptor and to screw a moerman excelerator handle to the wfp angle adaptor. That way you have more versatility.
I'll get a link to a video where I show option 2

@@TradMan Many thanks, ordered today
Nice review bro. Will WCW be selling this in the US at any point?
They do ship overseas mate 👍🏻
Can't see a 12ft trad pole on there website
There launching there new website today so may take a day to appear 👍🏻
Hi its on the same page as the 8ftr....just select 12ftr 😊 cheers Andrew
No shipping to Norway?
They normally ship anywhere
@Mr vindusvask give them a call buddy 🤜🏻🤛🏻
DR Angel already fits Gardiner SLX and Xero polls..
There must be an adaptor for those poles then
Yes.. the Xero had options for different tips. I then tried it in my Garinder and it fit perfect..
Is the cone forsale by itself
Yes as far as I'm told, all parts are separate to buy.
WCW launched a new website today, so try again tomorrow to see if it's all up.
As soon as it's available I'll have the links in description 👍🏻
@@TradMan cheers ill have a look again tomorrow 👍
😎👍
Hope your keeping well 😁👍🏻
yes thanks, how manny feet do you have with the Face Lift Big Boy worked, my question about the water pressure
@@wollefderfensterputzer I used it up to 30 ft mate
they do not send to Germany?!
Have you emailed/ called them?
TRAD - MAN yes I did. I‘m waiting for an awnser. Thank you!
@@MrFranky3001 ok 👍🏻
TRAD - MAN It worked👍 I paid and it’s on it way to Germany. Thanks
@@MrFranky3001 awesome!!
Full carbon fibre all the way
You’ll buy that and end up regretting it.
Use both you will see where that extra money goes....
#justsaying
thats absolutely right. I use a carbon fiber custom made one and never going back
For low work like 12ft and under you don't really need 100% carbon as there's not to much to flex in 12ft of pole but yeah if you go for 18ft or above then yes full carbon is more beneficial to retain rigidity.
TRAD - MAN
Agreed on that but it’s about weight , rigidity is a given with full carbon.
@@brianbarber1728 this 12ft pole honestly is so light any lighter and it would float 😜
Really don't see the point in trad pole work when water fed is so much easier
Some customers may prefer trad. Good to give your customers what they want and just charge accordingly.
For instance a lot of stores don't want puddles of water all round the front of there store. Or some residential may want trad because the wfp method may leak in there windows or they just prefer the squeegee.
I know some folks just do wfp and that's it and that's fine but some companies like to offer there customers what they want and just price appropriately. 👍🏻
@John Bhoy lol!
You need pure water whit a brush.
Yes that'll be coming this week and future videos will feature wfp and traditional 😁👍🏻
@@TradMan good to hear! you gonna love it! A expantion of your business 👍
