Thanks WV. In answer to your question I don’t find feathering each pull after swiping to be faster as it take slightly longer to feather than to slightly swipe to the right for each pull down. Keep in mind after the initial cut in of the top (swipe left then right against the top frame removing the water from the top edge of the glass) you don’t have to use an exaggerated swipe to the right each time. As long as you start your squeegee over to the left of where you want your downward stroke to be that’s enough. So it’s just a slight swipe to the right and a pull straight down. Slightly faster than feathering each pulldown.
Also with each time feathering the glass, if you do it right, you shouldn’t get runs but there is always the risk of runs which you will get on occasion. With using the seven stroke on each downward pull there is no risk of runs except on your last pull where you feather the glass. I hope that’s helpful.
