Are you in the PDAA or do you know Rob Ivers? I used to work with Rob and he taught me to use the Walmart
Bondex adhesive backed nylon patches 15 years ago. They work good for about one wrap and then you burn through the edge and leave adhesive streaks. They are cheap, $5 to cover 8 squeegees.
My favorites are the
WetEdge or
Geekwraps squeegees. They are expensive but they last a long time. I buy them in 10 packs to save a buck or two on the squeegees and shipping. I know installers that buy the WetEdge squeegees and take off the buffer and install it on their favorite squeegee (more or less flexible) Also, don't use the black Geekwraps squeegee with water. Over time it will rust because it has a piece of steel in it. It was designed to work with the powerslam magnets.
Because these squeegees are expensive you will want to maintain them. Rubbing 2 squeegees together works for minor nicks. When that isn't enough you can use sand paper (220 followed by 600 grit) or a
Hard Card Shapening Tool from 44 tools.
Squeegees are a personal choice and there are lots of options especially in the DIY area; Walmart
Bondex, loop Velcro,
Monkey Strips,
RollePro felt and fleece,
Teflon tape,
Solskin,
YelloWings...
I think the
WrapGlove is the best glove out there. For me it lasts the longest, machine washable, works the best, and the most reasonably priced.
I love the
YelloMini and Hang Loose squeegees. I have both but you can cut down your old squeegees and make these yourself. Heat with a heat gun and bend if desired.
