What is the Best Moerman Sleeve for Holding Water?
While Moerman builds window cleaning T-bar sleeves to retain the maximum amount of water, the Niveo Sleeve passes the ultimate retention test. Capable of holding up to 19 oz. of water at a time, this beast of a sleeve scrubs windows at nearly double the capacity of most competitors! Constructed from absorbent, premium microfiber, the Niveo holds water better than average materials. Available in 6-inch up to 18-inch sizes, the Moerman Niveo Sleeve will save you trips to the bucket while preserving your time and energy!
When it comes to retention, not to be overlooked is the Moerman Baobab Sleeve. These sleeves are aptly named after Baobab trees, which are known for their extraordinary longevity, excellent water storage capacity, and essential role in the African savanna ecosystem. This thick microfiber sleeve is environmentally friendly and, like the Baobab tree, holds a great deal of water to keep you cleaning pane after pane.
Do Moerman F*liq Scrubbers work on Channels other than Moerman?
Moerman designed their variety of F*LIQ Scrubbers to work seamlessly with other Moerman channels. Simply clip a F*LIQ Scrubber onto your Moerman Liquidator channel, and "F*LIQ" back and forth between the washer sleeve and squeegee for a faster clean. But are F*LIQ scrubbers compatible with other channels outside of the Moerman brand? Here’s a breakdown:
- Moerman F*LIQ FUGU Sleeve: Compatible with Moerman Excelorator 2.0 and 3.0 channels Unger S Channels.
- Moerman F*LIQ Clip On Washer Strip: Compatible with Moerman Excelorator 2.0 and 3.0 channels and Ettore brass channels.
- Moerman F*LIQ Washer Strip with Aluminum Attach Bar: Compatible with the Excelerator 2.0 and the Liquidator 6 Inch.
What Sleeve do I Use for Which Surfaces?
Moerman builds their sleeves to remove even the toughest grime from windows, but offers variations in their sleeve power. Some sleeves have extra scrubbing bristles for targeting especially stuck-on debris. Just like Moerman Sleeves, however, not all windows are made the same! A rookie mistake is using the wrong Moerman Sleeve on the wrong surface. Instead of removing grime, you could accidentally make the problem worse! So which sleeves are right for which surfaces or jobs?
- Stickers or Vinyl: When cleaning over vinyl on windows or stickers, you want to use a gentle scrubber that won’t lift lettering or designs. The Moerman Complete Microfiber Stripwasher is gentle enough to protect vinyl while eliminating grime. Avoid sleeves with nylon fibers, as they could cause micro-scratches that become visible over time.
- Tinted Glass/Mirrors: A soft, plush sleeve such as the Moerman Microfiber Sleeve or the Moerman Baobab Sleeve is ideal for tinted glass because it won’t scratch the coating. *Avoid using the Moerman FUGU Sleeve or sleeves with bristles because it will damage tint or similar coatings on glass.
- Extra tough grime: The Moerman FUGU sleeve was developed for tackling especially grimy windows. Stiff plastic spines or bristles mix with the microfiber of this sleeve, making it especially adept at removing stuck-on dirt from glass.
- Indoor Windows: The difference when cleaning indoor windows is the risk of liability. You don’t want to leave puddles behind that might ruin interiors, or worse, that someone might slip on! In these scenarios, you want a sleeve that doesn’t sop with water or leave drips behind. The Moerman Microfiber Sleeve is loved by window cleaners for just such occasions.
Moerman has the right sleeve for every occasion! Window washers agree that it’s wise to have a variety on hand so that you can switch between sleeves when a unique surface finds you on the job. Get your hands on the Moerman Scrubber Sleeve Pack, and have every sleeve at your disposal.
What is a Moerman Combination Sleeve and How Does it Attach to a Squeegee?
The Moerman Combinator Microfiber Sleeve is a unique and innovative tool that is designed using the E.A.S.E. (*EASE = Efficiency, Amazing results, Safety and Ergonomics) design principle. The Combinator is an ergonomic, lightweight, and versatile system. It is ideal for pole work, residential, and storefronts. It’s component-based, which means you can customize it according to your budget and needs. Because of the shape of the Combinator premium microfiber sleeve, it allows the Liquidator to reach the edges of the glass with perfect results.
The sleeve is specially designed to easily slide onto any T-bar of equal size. Simply slip one end of the T-bar into the sleeve, and it will wrap around the bar. Use the two Velcro strips at the opposite end to wrap tight around the rest of the T-bar, and you’re ready to get to work!

How do you Clean and Maintain a Moerman Sleeve?
Moerman has taken care to make cleaning and maintenance of their sleeves a breeze.
When you’re actively using a sleeve, be sure to rinse it between washes so as to keep debris from building up and reducing odors. When you’re not using your sleeve, give it a good rinse. Then, to keep it in pristine condition and eliminate odors, we suggest tossing it in the washing machine with a scent-free detergent on a gentle cycle so as to preserve the life of the fibers. DO NOT put it in the dryer, however. Instead, let it air dry in a cool, dry location. This will stretch the life of your sleeves for years to come!
