The difference between amateur and pro results? Technique. With the right squeegee and method, you’ll achieve a flawless, streak-free finish every time.

Pro Technique Breakdown

• Overlap Passes: Each squeegee pass should overlap the previous by about an inch. This prevents water lines and missed spots.

• Tilt the Squeegee: Always tilt the leading edge in the direction you’re moving. This channels water away and prevents streaks.

• Pressure: Use just enough pressure for the blade to contact the glass—let the tool do the work.

• Re-wet if Needed: If you miss a spot or see streaks, simply re-wet and squeegee again.
