Best Extendable Windshield Washing Pole
I bought one at CW that I was happy with but every time I go and look at their current ones the rubber squeegee is too hard and doesn't squeegee well. Are there good ones out there?

My wife got me one from the RV department at Walmart. I like it a lot.

Walmart, for about $12. After washing with the brush side, I use the back side of the head with a towel draped over it to dry.

The best gizmo I have found is any kind of washer but the key is this squeege. It easily conforms to curved windows. So I have two devices, one with a sponge/scrubby that I just pour windex on and then this device to get the fluid off.

I made a squeegee out of a 18 inch wiper blade. Works well since it follows the curve of the windshield.
But I have stopped using water because of water spots on the front of the RV.
Now I spray ammonia free window cleaner, use the scrubber side of the window washer tool, and then a microfiber cloth over the squeegee side of the tool.
Cleaner glass, no water streaks between strokes, and no water spots on the front cowl.
I use a extendable painters pole from Lowe's.

The Home Depot squeegee can also be carefully bent and formed to a curve which works well on the curved windshield on our DP. If needed, I still use the telescoping pole with the bug cleaning pad from the Auto Parts store, but only use it's stiff squeegee on side windows. Then grab the other Home Depot pole with the curved squeegee for the front windshield. Still looking for a BUG cleaning attachment for the Home Depot pole.

Best squeegee I've found is windshield wiper. You'll need a bracket, then snap the wiper blade off the arm and on to the end of the pole.
