Searching for a really good windshield squeegee
Can anyone recommend a good telescoping squeegee for cleaning class A windshields? The several I've had in the past couple of years are a disappointment when it comes to the squeegee blade, too stiff and hard. I'm looking for a more flexible rubber blade not the rigid black plastic-like ones I keep running across.

We experimented today using a Swiffer like mop pad on a flat holder we installed Velcro on to do the inside window. Not too bad. Made it easy to reach. More trials are necessayc.

Window cleaning
I obtained mine at a janitorial supply company-check the yellow pages if there is one in your area. Good luck

I've run into the same problem. All are too stiff. Maybe if I let the local truck stop borrow it for a few months, they could break it in for me.

I had the same issue and got a floor squeegee like this http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...rch_detailpage
It is soft and flexable, works great!

I bought a floor squeegee at Wal-Mart. The rubber is more pliable than the car-window squeegee and it's wider. It fits the curvature of the windshield much better. Not perfect but best I've had so far.

I too am looking for a good quality brush/squeegee. I don't want to mess with separate tools. I'll be watching this thread to see if anyone can suggest a solution. Thanks!
