Not really. I Love You Brother! What I don’t love is that Black Diamond Rubber you sold me. I’ll spend 3 hours fixing those 70 windows I used that rubber on next Tuesday. I’m puttin’ Ettore back in that Moerman Excellerator before my next job.
I didn’t care for the black diamond rubber either. Maybe we just got a bad batch but it just left lines everywhere. :-/
Actually if you go to most the review sites for black diamond rubber you will find my rude comments. Their stuff is just plain as shit. Garbage, trash, crap, zombie barf! I was sent two different batches and they both sucked and were both labeled from different companies stamps and were not the same length. Crappy company, crappy customer service and will never waste any more home… I actually tossed them in the trash and don’t even want my $40 back.
Buy ETTORE ONLY! maybe unger as hey used to be my favorite but the ettore is only way to go!
I like Black Diamond rubber in my regular channels.
I like Ettore rubber in the liquidator channels.

Soft for sure.
There are trails that I will go back and fix Tuesday. I had to use more force to get that crap to work at all. I’m glad to see I’m not the only one. MAN I hate doing a job twice. Didn’t see the problems til I was outside WFPing the exteriors. JOSH, You’re the DUDE, but if you EVER sell me crap like that again I’m comin’ to Charlotte and lookin’ you up

Not the soft. Hard BD is good. I use it all the time with Excelerator.
Soft isn’t good.
So you were noticing problems as you were working on the job? Did you have any other rubbers?
I agree that the BD soft isn’t good but, at the same time, perhaps next job you will test on first window, examine, if ok then green light go. If not, fix problem, if possible, before proceeding.

Also, instead of using more pressure, change the angle to glass and use more hanglide than power stroke.

No clue as the rubber was stamped with different companies logos and black diamond logo but no stiffness rating but I ordered soft
was the other label gumenfraken or something like that?
One said coral or corol and the other was gumfraken wagon <- lol Siri
Absolutely Jordie. Black Diamond and Unger are both shorter bulb to Edge than most other rubbers so you need to drop the handles a few degrees closer to the glass to get the same clean cut through the solution BUT with Liquidator the clips come into play as well and with the shorter rubbers the tip is almost flush with the edge making it very unforgiving of mistakes. I shaved a couple of .mm of the a set of clips to give me the appropriate gap for those rubbers.

It was the BD Hard Rubber. Entire batch I received did it.
Look, my technique still develops. Thought it might be me. In the end, probably a combination. BUT, I find the Ettore to be smooother and require less pressure.

I bought a gross of the wide body rubber for my sorbos and have had great results. Might just be the batch of something.
