Hi All,
Just wondering what is the main difference between the above three products, and which would you recommend for shop front work?
I’ve asked Wagtail the same question, but I think I’ll get a more practical answer here

Good luck, I’ve gone on four different sites and gotten four different pictures, four different descriptions, and four different prices for the Combi alone.
The orbitals are a stronger squeegee and I think at this point the Orbital flipper is your best bet.
The Combi has a flipper pad velcro’d on just below the channel to act as a ‘one pass, wash and squeegee at the same time’ but not always practical.
I prefer the slimline my self but that’s just me.
This is not to mention the PC and the yellow disk orbital, also there are now three different clips to use with different pads and squeegees. I’ve got them all and for the most part have stuck Velcro on the blades where I can and sewn Velcro on the pads and I can make most of them flip over or under. I agree with Mark on the slimline as it is the most versatile and the wide blades are sturdier. You pays your money and you makes your choice. Willie gives you lots of choices.
Hahaha it’s funny but so true

Thanks for the replies, much appreciated. @BeautifulView I have a 18" slimline channel, can I retro fit it to make a slimline flipper?

yes, you just need an 18" microfibre pad and a pair of velcro clips.
When I bought my clips I did so from Willie’s brother along with a bunch of slimline channels. Do you know who sells the clips? I have found none listed stateside, and I’m liking the new blue ones for the wide blade channels.
last time I talked to Willie about the blue clips he said he was having a hard time getting them. He had sent me some Combi’s with just stickon velcro but I had a customer complain so he sent me some blue one’s. He’s pushing the orbital flipper now over the combi and that uses white clip ons as in the pic I provided.
Its not one of the ones listed in the original question but i prefer the pivot control flipper, or just as a squeegee. The pivot is super smooth compared to the slimline. The slimline disc will gradually grind against the handle since the disc is on top, whereas the pivot control has the disc underneath so no grinding.

Agreed, and I use the blue disk squeegees for parts and moding T bars. We still need a source for the Velcro clips.
Hi all, so I gave the slimline flipper a go (had a slimline channel already).
Im giving it a go on panes that are about 14’ tall, with only 1’ to 2’ of space behind me; im inside shops with displays/maniquens etc).
Apart from my lack of practice, I’m finding it hard to fan the wagtail (ironically) and to flip the pad up to get washing.
Any suggestions/advice? When im not in tight spaces fanning is easier.
Thank you,
