I used to make fun of my dad for making groan noises when he's super concentrated on a task but a couple years ago my girlfriend pointed out that I was making the exact same noises when I focused on anything lol. It wasn't even just for things that are physically draining either, I would do them even when playing videogames or making food or making measurements for hanging stuff on our walls

So jealous of how I never see you clean frames very much! I'm in Germany, and whilst the window and frame design here is usually quite different from what I see in your videos, almost all my customers fully expect a full frame cleaning to be included.

Great video bro, your day to day mirrors a lot of ours in the field. I’ve made the same mistake scheduling work on holidays. I guess when Spring rolls around each time I tend to get excited to start scheduling work again, and sometimes literally schedule myself into a corner. Did you end up keeping the little transit connect van, or move on entirely to the pickup? I have to say, I had an 2000’s Astro van and absolutely loved it, it held a lot of equipment and had AWD, but eventually wore out. I recently bought a newer Transit Connect, over the Dodge & Nissan . I love how they zip around compared to the full sized rigs. I literally have Just enough space for my Tucker/Ro-Di equipment, shelving, trad stuff, and High-rise gear. I’m really liking it. I gained quite a lot of mpg too. Thanks dude for your continued contributions in our trade of windows. I made quite a lot of videos too in KZfaq’s early years, and was also approached by Collinsave productions company on a reality show , but we couldn’t figure out how to make a tv show work. It woulda been cool to make a show like “The Squeegees” … Later bro 🥷

How do you get your squeegee to glide longer on the glass, whenever I squeegee at home ( Cleaning my own windows and mirrors) it struggles to glide after about a second of being wiped I also find the water and solution is left after I squeegeed over the glass. Any tips to perfecting my technique and products I should get? I think you mentioned something called slide? Thanks P.s I've been using the same rubber for about 2 weeks maybe this is a factor in lesser performance?
