FAQs - Cast Aluminum Squeegee Q: Is this blade compatible with all Side Swipe handles?A: Yes, the blade is designed to fit Side Swipe-style handles. If your tool uses the same blade seating method / dimensions, it should work properly. Q: What material is the blue blade made from, and will it scratch vinyl or PPF?A: The blade is made from a flexible yet firm polymer (specify your exact material). Its edge is designed to be non-abrasive and safe for vinyl, PPF, tint films — it should not scratch when used properly. Q: Can I use this blade for both dry and wet film installations?A: Yes. The water blade design helps even in wet installs, and with light lubrication or slip solution, it helps smooth out air/water bubbles. For dry installs, just ensure film is clean and tension is correct. Q: How often should I replace the blade?A: Replace when you notice edge dings, roughness, or reduced clarity (when bubbles/water don’t clear smoothly), or if the blade begins to warp. Regular inspection will help maintain finish quality. Q: How do I clean and maintain the blade to prolong life?A: After each use, rinse with clean water (if slip solution used), wipe to remove adhesive residue or dirt, then dry completely. Store flat in a cool, dry place. Avoid exposure to extreme heat that might warp the blade.
