Best way for a girl to pull/push a squeegee?

<< < (6/6)

Gabe:
I would try to use the back muscles  coat the screen first like an auto machine then angle the squeegee a bit to
allow the ink flow much easier. apply down force presure, check  the squeegee angle then pull the squeegee towards you using your shoulder blades the back muscles in this area are much stronger than the forearm muscles
just my two cents

RICK STEFANICK:
I pull while manually printing.at 49 years old i made a few changes like bought 75/90/75 squeegie rubber, i flood if necesarry while in the past i would have just double stroked. adding pallet rubber to the pallets. all these things helped.. I also  extend my fingers more while griping the squeegie..
