VWaholic Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 How often do you replace your yellow squeegee? I?ve noticed that every time I replace it it glides across the glass and tint a lot easier. Even with that being the case I never seem to replace it until it starts leaving streaks across the glass. Maybe out of laziness. I?m just wondering what other tinters habits are with the yellow squeegee. I might have to change my habit and cut myself a new one more often.

Protint Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 I have had the same one for about four years now. We have new ones laying around the shop but they feel thinner than the one I have. I only use it to clean the glass not to install film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Blade Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 every 2 days. I replace mine probably every 2 months. Kinda hard to say. I've got 3 different ones that I'm always using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houlio Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 Believe it or not, you can run those across some 2000 grit wet sand paper just like a hard card and you're good to go for another 2 weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest thetintshop Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 I have had the same one for about four years now. We have new ones laying around the shop but they feel thinner than the one I have. I only use it to clean the glass not to install film. about every 2 months. maybe once a month in the summer. pro, so you've noticed the yellow ones aren't as thick as they used to be? I thought it was just me. I don't like them either. why does every time someone has a good thing going, do they up and change it? the new ones suck. I've ordered from a couple different places hoping to get one of the old ones. but no such luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mdog Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 I sand mine for a better edge every few days, just when I notice it streaking. they will last for years as long as you want to keep sanding on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cooltint Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 I replace mine as soon as the yellow squeegee changes color across the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
