So I have already admitted that I am a poor “fanner” even though I do practice.
Based on your work in the field, what is the proper angle the squeegee should be in reference to the glass, assuming it is a traditional squeegee (not a zero degree)?
Can someone please post a picture or a quick video clip…maybe…

I’d say every squeegee brand is a little different but overall you can do this:
Hold the squeegee on the glass with your dominant hand then slip the opposite hand in between your curled fingers and the glass. This should be a good angle provided your hands aren’t too chubby. :o
But really the true test is performance. If you’re leaving water behind, then compensate til you’ve got it fixed.

One of the things that really helped me learn to fan was making sure my solution had enough slip. Use some Super Slip from Winsol, or use a solution that contains enough wetting agents GG3 is pretty good (or use TSP, if you want to and feel right about it… I’m not intentionally starting a soap war, honest) You cannot fan properly without plenty of glide… at least I can’t.
I was struggling like crazy to fan until I got the window nice and slippery, then it was fairly easy to get the form down.
I dont even know! 2 inches from the glass?
Hey I use GG3 and a little Super Slip. Can’t have enough slip.
