Title: Do the Roller squeegees have rubber, or are they hard?
Post by: ffokazak on January 24, 2016, 05:24:57 PM

Just wondering if the roller squeegees I see out are hard, or if they have a softer coating?

Seems to me they would work better if they were just steel?

The one I got a few years ago got rubber. It wears down though and starts breaking apart at both ends of the roller.

I got one a month or so ago and mine is also rubber.

To maybe answer further, or confuse it, the rubber is pretty hard.
I'm sure it could even be measured in durometer like a squeegee sure.
