What is a Complete Scrubber?
A complete scrubber is the marriage of two essential window cleaning tools: the scrubber sleeve and the T-Bar. Together, this crucial equipment duo allows you to quickly prepare a window for squeegeeing, yielding the most flawless results. Say goodbye to difficult shopping decisions, endless comparing and contrasting, and say hello to quick all-in-one solutions. With complete window scrubbers, you know your sleeve and T-Bar will be compatible and ready to clean! A complete set will come with all the benefits you’d find with individually sold T-Bars, such as ergonomic handles, non-slip grips, swiveling capabilities, and options for differing levels of water retention. With complete sets, you’ll also find a variety of sleeves to choose from that provide varying degrees of abrasiveness, absorptivity, and color for any situation. A complete window scrubber is great because you can be confident that your equipment is designed with intention and ready to clean, so you can get the best results.
What Types of Window Scrubbers are There?
There’s a window scrubber set for every situation. You’ll find a variety of complete scrubbers from your favorite professional brands such as Maykker, Pulex, Moerman, Unger, Ettore, and Sörbo. You can choose from scrubbers with swiveling handles, different levels of abrasiveness, varying lengths, and more. A swiveling scrubber set can open up your access capabilities by allowing you to approach windows from a variety of angles, especially when it’s attached to a pole. You might opt for a simpler set with a fixed grip for handheld use instead. Either way, it's important to consider the qualities of the scrubber sleeve that comes paired with the T-Bar. Some scrubbers will be better suited for extra dirty glass, while others will be more appropriate for cleaning fragile surfaces such as tinted windows or glass with low E coating. Regardless, you should have multiple kinds of scrubbers so you’re prepared for the full spectrum of scenarios you may encounter. And of course, these complete sets will come in a range of lengths so you can tailor the length of your scrubbers to the size of the windows you’ll be cleaning. From tiny French panes to giant picture windows, the WCR complete scrubber inventory will have you covered!
When Should I Use a Window Scrubber?
You should use a window scrubber whenever you plan to use a squeegee for window cleaning. If you do any traditional window cleaning, this means your scrubber will be your best friend. As a traditional window cleaner, your scrubber is the bedrock of your cleaning process; Squeegeeing cannot happen unless a cleaning solution has been applied with the scrubber. With that being said, the scrubber set will be the most frequently used tool next to the squeegee when it comes to traditional methods. A scrubber is responsible for applying a slippery cleaning solution, an absolute necessity for a smooth squeegee glide. It also agitates and removes grime that is stuck to the glass. Together, these things set the stage for your squeegee to leave a streak-free shine. Because your scrubber set will be the first tool you reach for on almost every window, it’s crucial that it feels right and performs to your standards so you can get started on the right foot.
How To Select a Complete Window Scrubber?
In order to select the best window scrubber for you, it’s important to consider the situations you’ll be using it the most for. Are you looking for a scrubber set to go with your pole or one to holster in your BOAB for handheld use? Questions like these can help you hone in on scrubber characteristics most suitable for your needs. Generally, swiveling scrubbers like the Unger Ninja are especially useful when being used with a pole because their pivoting abilities allow for more freedom of motion for the pole handler. However, a fixed scrubber like the Moerman Baobab set can still be used with poles if that's what you prefer! If you already have a pole, consider matching your pole brand to scrubber brand for optimal compatibility. Many poles and scrubbers are cross-compatible, but matching brands with one another guarantees seamless integration between tools. Lastly, you’ll want to consider the length of your scrubber set when exploring your options. Generally, the bigger the glass, the bigger you’d want your scrubber in order to save time and energy. In the end, you’ll come across glass of all shapes, sizes, and conditions, so it’s not a bad idea to have a range of complete scrubbers for any scenario.
Are Sleeves and T-Bars Interchangeable Between Brands?
Sleeves and T-Bars are interchangeable between brands! This is fantastic for window cleaners who want to dial in their setup as much as possible. The ability to mix and match between brands greatly expands your options and allows you to put together a scrubber set that is best catered to your needs. It also allows you to be flexible with your equipment choices so you’re not boxed into one brand.
As long as the sleeve length is the same as the T-Bar length, you’re good to go! The only exception is with the Maykker scrubbers; in order for these to be universal across T-Bars you must have the Maykker Handy Sleeve to attach to the T-Bar. The Maykker Handy Sleeve is the mounting surface that buttons onto your T-bar to allow for rapid scrubber pad application and removal. The world is your oyster; don’t be afraid to experiment with different combinations to find your favorite pairing. You can make the most out of your freedom of choice by customizing your equipment to optimize speed and efficiency!
Maykker Scrubbers VS Traditional Scrubbers
Maykker offers an advanced scrubbing system unique to their products. A Maykker scrubber uses a hook-and-loop system, similar to Velcro, in order to secure the scrubber to the T-Bar. By doing so, the scrubber does not roll or slide around the t-bar as much as a traditional scrubber. This makes your scrubbing efforts more powerful and efficient as more friction is channeled into the glass. An additional benefit of the Maykker setup is the ease of sleeve swapping; simply tear it off and lay on another scrubber from Maykker. Just like other sleeve providers, Maykker scrubbers come in a variety of options depending on your needs. Your choices include the Scotsman, Python, and HedgeHog all with varying properties depending on your needs and preferences. Although the Maykker scrubbers utilize a different design than others, they can still be used with other T-bars with a little preparation! Just attach the Maykker Handy Sleeve to your T-Bar of choice, then add your Maykker Scrubber Sleeve. The Maykker Handy Sleeve can also be used as a mounting surface for Walnut Scrubbers or towels to detail those hard-to-reach places with a pole. If you’re not satisfied with your traditional scrubber, consider trying Maykker’s innovative design!
