Love my gunslinger, can get three squeegees in there and a 6 inch mop. Other side I've got the moerman drywalker, with 14 inch mop. Had to upgrade my tool belt to a makita one, and exchanged the belt that it comes with, with a quick release stretchy belt. This is so much quicker, and more comfortable. The unger "window cleaning tool belt" that I endured for years, in constant discomfort is next to useless. Honestly the window cleaning industry can be so frustrating. You buy things marketed for window cleaners, as you believe that they've had years of innovation and input, then you realise that they're not fit for purpose in the first place. You did well with pushing your innovation through with Moerman.
I still love my liquidators however they do require some set up for optimum use , but once you have it down it's not a problem I use pins both sides on each end cut my pulex soft rubber properly and it's so smooth on the glass less detailing or zero on old frames it's just less but that's the frames . nothing compares I think most window cleaners get so set in their ways they can't change.
I use unger rubber, its not necessary to use pins for it, they are thicker than other rubber. So they dont move in you rail. Bending my handle, why , there are a lot handles for sale in different angles
I heard that a Ferrari has a bit more oomph in it than a Cortina. I guess driving a Ferrari requires a bit more oomph in driving skills and the settings will be differently configured
@@polznbladz3242 moerman have handles from 40 to 0 degrees and also - 10? degrees. Unger have also handles like this. So, bending is not necessary i think
@@polznbladz3242 in the beginning i bought a lot of material, different squeeze and handles, super channel, unger. I searcht for the Wright combination. Moerman liquidator is my personal preference. Think that every window claener choose there own tool, where they are comfortable with
I tried the green rubber and it did last long and had a decent performance to it. I tried the green clip but I found over time they broke and split. Paper clips are free and wear better
Deep sills are my least favorite tackle in window cleaning. I need more practice, or do your double down dr plus mini adapter because I was shocked at how bad my closeouts were at a couple banks I clean with the dr angle. It's mainly frustrating because these are sills on a second story so I can't see my work unless I see from inside or on my extension ladder. These windows are very tall length wise, so for now until I practice more or change my setup a little, I just do what I can see with the pole then do the bottoms on my 24 ft ladder face to glass. I still have yet to get a WFP setup and stubbornly refuse to for now, I want to master trad work to the fullest capacity. I've had customers tell me my OCD style detail cleaning with trad pole has been better than their last WFP cleaner. I've even used a scraper with a pole, kinda sketchy but worked very well. Some windows are simply too caked to WFP and are too huge to get done with a ladder without overextending like a suicidal idiot and moving a ladder 50 times. I'm surprised so many cleaners are turned off to this way of working. It's very rewarding but can be taxing physically. Also a jab at WFP and anti-liquidator purists, one bank I get outs done in 30 minutes where last guy got it done in an hr+ with WFP, also everyone like steve o saying no detailing is lazy or doesn't save time are complete liars and/or incompetent. A big laugh coming from a guy that literally left detail lines on a commercial clean video years ago, left them and said "no one will notice" THAT IS LAZY lol. I can't help but want to rant about these people when I see your videos. I don't mind people simply not liking the liquidator and don't mind detailing but don't lie about the time saved. The "lazy" argument I've heard is insane. Yeah I'm lazy for using a car vs a horse to go into town, or a text vs a letter in the mail. WTF Thanks for all you do and the fantastic advice in helping me work and become a more competent and confident window cleaner! Cheers!
There are lots of lies and exaggerations said by plenty of window cleaners on UA-cam. There are a lot of egotists and frauds. I made a vid about that a few weeks ago, Deep sill close outs on a pole IS the hardest thing to do. That's why no UA-camr shows and talks about it. Aiming for zero detailing is even harder. Yt window cleaners don't show you anything hard when it comes to trad window cleaning. It will make them look bad. Anyone with any sense already know they are bad. The Dr Angle works for about 6-8 inch but not so high up like you are working. I took an old Moerman angle arm, hack sawed it. Heated up the end with a heat gun and then pushed it on the end of a long Dr Angle.. Once it cooled I took it off so now it's like an extra extension cone that can be fitted on top of the Dr Angle. You should think about getting wfp if you are doing extremely difficult jobs. You will always be a work in progress with your trad work because you will always be improving. Next month next year you will be better than you are today. I've asked Moerman plenty of times to get a proper ledging angle arm made. All they need to do is make an extra long Dr Angle or a slip on cone for good length. I might make a vid on all the Moerman tools I have that everyone else doesn't have. I've had to change things, cut things, added things to make my job easier to do whilst doing really difficult jobs
Btw, it's shocking how bad these Yt window cleaners actually are. I watch them and think what on earth are they doing. Absolute hopelessness in everything they do. That's the experts teaching the masses. Incredible!
@@polznbladz3242 Thanks for your input as usual! These jobs will pay for equipment quickly. Will invest in the best, cheapest WFP setup I can because I'm a penny pincher. Maybe someone local sells pure water I could use so I don't have to spend over 2000 damn dollars just to have clean water system. I could convert my trad pole, get a backpack system and fill it with pure water. I barely do jobs that kinda require WFP due to difficulty.

The Gunslinger and variants of it with or without the faults is a winner for most window cleaners
Never had to modify the handles personally. I adapt my angle of attack automatically.
Wow I don't hear or see many window cleaners are able to be versatile and adaptable. Something isn't right

Optionum angle for average use for a Liquidator is best under 20 degrees. Most handles are 35-40@@dhoek

Have you tried Unger green rubber it lasts a long time.
Also the green unger clips to lock the blade?
I use the same channels.
Respect!

@@polznbladz3242 I’ll go & try some paper clips.As you say the green clips don’t last.Thanks for the reply.
@@vonovine They slide in better, work better, last longer and don't cost you. Unger clips don't have these qualities
