Life of squeegee
« on: June 09, 2018, 12:46:42 AM »
I have a few squeegees that I’ve used for about 3 years.
I changed one and noticed that the unused part in the holder looks like new.
Can I turn them around or does the material used to make the squeegees deteriorate with time?

Flip it and rip it!

I do believe that the rubber will eventually breakdown over years of exposure to chems and ink, but the rubber on the handle side of your squeegee is good to go.
