We had a storm job this week w/ cut ups on the top pane. We shot some videos and got some good views of the Slayer.
Good view of the Slayer on the bottom pane.

Another quick one w/ a 6" Slayer.
The slayer channel and ettore handle looks so good together. 
So you like this better than the other channels. Are these channels bigger or something?
If you like S-bo’s I hear you’ll like these. Its the same design.
This is a great channels especially to big pane commercial work. I switch back and forth between these and ettore. I dont know why, Im weird I guess.

That’s the way I do it also. Just makes sense to cut to fit on frenchies regardless of what channel.
I agree with the LFI rubber… I really quite liked it also. Seems to last pretty well. Actually, I think my Slayer is great, and I only bought a 22" for large windows…but it is really light and easy to use, would recommend it to anyone
I like the cut to fit channels if there are a great number of cut-ups on a particular job, but for just two or three windows or doors on a house I like the method that Tony uses or variations of that method.
The variation of Tony’s method that I’m speaking of is one that you only have to wipe the blade for the last pull on each pane. It’s sort of the upside-down L method which eliminates having to wipe excess water (solution) from the blade on the first pull on a pane. Also it’s kind of like the first pull that many of us use when poling a large storefront pane except done by hand instead of with a pole.
Nice combo Tony.

Hi Tony,
I always enjoy watching your videos they are great!!!
Thanks for sharing
Tony, I just thought of something. Remember the technique that the Swedish guy himself demostrated at the convention back in Feb? He installed a channel just like the Slayer into a squeegee handle but upside-down.
Starting on the top left he made one swipe across the glass and slid the blade down the right frame and then came back across the lower part of the glass.
That technique just might be a super quick method for doing cut-ups.
I’m gonna experiment with that technique a bit. Maybe on larger panes as well as cut-ups.
It only works with a Slayer channel or one just like it.
Maybe the swedish guy just had the rubber blade in the second slot instead of upside-down in the channel. I don’t remember for sure but I’m messin’ around with that technique to find out.
I wrote that technique off as a gimmick when I saw it demonstrated in Atlanta but if it actually works out in the real world it would really speed up squeegeeing cut-ups.
The Swedish guys method works w/ any wide body channel. I’ve done it w/ an Ettore Super Channel.
I used the method on the video because the frames are in bad shape. After each pass I had paint chips on the rubber and the quick wipe took care of it.
What size channel are you using here Tony? Do you cut channels to the size of the pane or do you just carry a couple small sizes with you?
Nice video btw. 
Nuvudude, wow !! U found out that this evel guy is doing !!! One pull and 2nd slot makes less pressure!! Put this with a swilve ledger and left to right will save u lots of steps !! Why is this so eveil ??? Saveing time is up to you !! Yes this works on 36 inch too !!! Just eveil !! On that one window there was 24 swipes with this it’s 12 !! Just eveil !! On a house with a lot of these windows, whats the count ?? !! Ya !! Now who was this guy ??? Must have been some one with a little time to dream this up !! Why is a crime to save time ???

Yeah, I think I remember a WCR video in which you demonstrated the Ettore Super Channel with that forward and backward stroke like the swedish guy did. Did you find that method to work in real world situations? I can see that it definitely would not work with bad frames that have cracked up paint.
Cut-ups with bad frames really suck!!!
Mark - On the first video I am using a 8" Slayer, the second is a 12" and the last one is a 6". I carry those sizes as well as a 16" on me at all times. There are so many different sizes of cut ups around here that I shudder to think how many cut to fit channels I would have to carry around.:eek:
Richard - I used it once where the window was straight across from me and the bushes were pretty thick. Honestly though w/ the Contour set at zero degrees it was just as easy to pull from one side to the other not the way the Swedish guy does it.
I have a few channels cut to size for specific jobs. I use a sharpie to write the job on each channel so I always have the right one. I only cut channels to size for jobs that I’ll do often though.
Hey Tony - use the scrim on the end of the channel to detail - that’ll speed you up no end
I’ll give it a try! Thanks Karl.
