What the Ettore 65000 ProGrip Window Cleaning Kit Is

The Ettore 65000 ProGrip Window Cleaning Kit is a two-piece manual window-cleaning set built around a method, not just a pair of tools. It includes a 12-inch ProGrip squeegee with a streak-free silicone rubber blade and a 10-inch ProGrip washer with a high-absorbency, removable microfiber sleeve. Both carry Ettore's non-slip ergonomic ProGrip handles with a click-lock that accepts a compatible extension pole. What it gives you is the professional storefront routine: the washer wets and scrubs the glass to lift dirt and film, the squeegee clears the water from the top down in overlapping pulls, and a huck or microfiber towel details the edges and sill. That sequence — wash, clear, detail — is the difference between clear glass and the smear that spray-and-wipe leaves in the sun. It is the tool that pulls a clean, dry sheet of water where a push broom only pushes it around.

Three honest boundaries keep the kit in its lane. First, the pole and the cleaning solution are sold separately: the handles are pole-ready via click-lock, but you add the pole for high glass, and you supply your own window soap or glass cleaner. Second, the silicone blade is a wear item — durable enough that the kit lasts years, but you flip it or fit fresh rubber when it starts leaving streaks, because a sharp edge is the entire secret to a clean pull. Third, and most important, it is a ground-level and reachable-glass method, not a high-rise system, and any window work done from a ladder or elevated position is work at height. Cleaning glass off the ground is a fall hazard the kit does nothing about; that calls for proper fall protection, planned separately.

The Wash-Clear-Detail Method and What It Needs

The value of this kit is that it teaches and equips a repeatable method. Start with the washer: charge the microfiber sleeve with a light window-soap solution and scrub the whole pane so the dirt is suspended, not just wetted. Then the squeegee: begin at a top corner and pull the blade down and across in overlapping strokes, wiping the rubber dry with a cloth between pulls so it never redeposits water. Finish by running a bar-mop or microfiber towel around the edges and along the sill, where the squeegee cannot fully reach. Keep a bucket of clean solution nearby to recharge the washer, and the whole pane clears faster and cleaner than any spray-and-paper-towel pass. Because you supply the solution, you can tune it — a touch more soap for greasy storefront glass, less for a light interior clean.

Match the kit to the glass and the access. The 12-inch channel is a versatile single size — efficient on most panes, though a wider squeegee clears very large storefront windows in fewer passes — and the microfiber sleeve launders and reuses, so the only regular consumable is the squeegee rubber. Handling glass, especially broken or edged panels, is its own hazard, so keep cut-resistant gloves on hand for that work and see our glass-handling glove guide. And for any glass you cannot reach from the ground, treat height as the real project: add a pole for what a pole can reach, and for ladder, roof, or elevated access, set up fall protection first — our guides to fall-protection kits, roof anchors, and fall-protection lanyards cover the gear that keeps at-height work safe.

Where It Fits and Where It Doesn't

This is the right kit for residential and light-commercial glass at ground level and reachable heights — storefronts, offices, entrances, and home windows cleaned with a real method. It is the wrong kit if you expected a pole or cleaning solution in the box, a high-rise or water-fed-pole system, or anything that makes at-height cleaning safe on its own. Supply your solution, keep a fresh squeegee blade, detail with a towel, and — for anything off the ground — plan the access and fall protection separately. Used that way, it is an inexpensive, durable upgrade from spray-and-wipe to a professional streak-free finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Ettore 65000 ProGrip Window Cleaning Kit?

It is a two-piece manual window-cleaning set: a 12-inch ProGrip squeegee with a streak-free silicone rubber blade and a 10-inch ProGrip washer with a high-absorbency microfiber sleeve. Both have Ettore's non-slip ergonomic handles with a click-lock that accepts a compatible extension pole. It is built for the professional wash-and-squeegee method that leaves glass clear and lint-free.

What is included, and does it come with a pole?

The kit includes the 12-inch squeegee and the 10-inch washer — the two tools you clean with. It does not include an extension pole: the handles are pole-ready with a click-lock, but the pole is sold separately for reaching high glass. It also does not include cleaning solution, so plan to add a pole only if you need reach, and to supply your own washing solution.

What is the professional window method?

Three steps. First the washer: dip the microfiber sleeve in your cleaning solution and scrub the glass to loosen dirt and film. Then the squeegee: starting at the top, pull the blade down in overlapping strokes, wiping the blade with a cloth between pulls so it stays dry and streak-free. Finally, detail the edges and the sill with a towel to catch the last of the water. Wash, clear, detail — that sequence is what separates a streak-free finish from a spray-and-wipe smear.

Does it come with cleaning solution?

No. You supply the washing solution — water with a dedicated window-cleaning soap, or a glass cleaner. A little soap in the water lets the squeegee glide and lift the film; too much leaves residue, so keep the mix light. The kit is the application tools; the chemistry is yours to add, which also lets you match the solution to hard water or heavy grime.

Is the squeegee rubber replaceable?

Yes, and you should plan to replace it. The silicone blade is durable — the kit lasts for years — but it is a wear item: as the edge rounds or nicks, it starts leaving streaks and lines, and that is the signal to flip it to the fresh edge or fit a new rubber. A clean, sharp blade is the whole secret to a streak-free pull, so treat the rubber as the consumable it is rather than fighting a worn edge.

Can I use it on high windows?

For glass beyond your reach you add a compatible extension pole to the click-lock handle — the pole is sold separately. But reaching higher introduces a real hazard: any window cleaning done from a ladder or an elevated position is work at height, and where a fall risk exists you need proper fall protection, not just a longer pole. The kit cleans the glass; it is not fall-protection equipment, so plan the access and the fall protection separately for anything off the ground.

What is the washer sleeve made of, and can I wash it?

The 10-inch washer carries a high-absorbency microfiber sleeve that holds cleaning solution and lifts dirt, dust, and grime off the glass. The sleeve is removable and reusable, so you launder it and put it back rather than replacing the whole tool — wash it clean of grit that could scratch glass, let it dry, and it is ready for the next job.

Is a 12-inch squeegee big enough?

Twelve inches is a versatile all-rounder — big enough to clear panes efficiently, small enough to handle divided lights and tighter frames. On very large storefront or picture windows a wider channel clears faster in fewer passes, so a high-volume glass operation may want a longer squeegee too, but for mixed residential and light-commercial work the 12-inch is the practical single size. Overlapping your strokes covers a pane wider than the blade cleanly.

Is this for home or commercial use?

Both, at ground level and reachable heights. It is ideal for residential windows and light commercial glass — storefronts, offices, entrances — using the same professional method a window cleaner uses. It is not aimed at high-rise or water-fed-pole operations; those use different systems. For the everyday reachable glass most facilities actually clean, this kit is the method-and-tools upgrade.

Why use a squeegee instead of spray and paper towels?

Speed and finish. A squeegee clears the whole pane of water in a few overlapping pulls, leaving no lint and no drying streaks, where spray-and-wipe buffs the dirt around and leaves fibers and smears — especially in sunlight. The washer-then-squeegee method is faster on more than a couple of panes and gives a genuinely clear result. The upgrade here is as much the method as the tools.

How do I maintain the kit?

Rinse the squeegee and the washer after use so grit does not dry on them, wipe the blade dry, and store them so the rubber is not bent or crushed — a distorted blade streaks. Launder the microfiber sleeve when it loads with dirt. Replace or flip the squeegee rubber when it starts leaving lines. Kept clean and stored flat or hung, the tools last for years and the only regular consumable is the blade.

Do the handles fit extension poles?

Yes — both the squeegee and the washer use ProGrip click-lock handles designed to attach to compatible extension poles quickly and securely, so you can add reach when you need it. The pole is not part of the kit, but the click-lock is what lets you move from hand-cleaning at ground level to pole-cleaning higher glass with the same two tools.

What is the Ettore 65000 ProGrip Window Cleaning Kit not?

It is not a pole kit (the handles are pole-ready, but the pole is sold separately), not a cleaning-solution kit (you supply the soap or glass cleaner), not a high-rise or water-fed system (it is a manual ground-level and reachable-glass method), and not fall-protection equipment (elevated work needs its own fall protection). Its squeegee blade is a replaceable wear item. It is a professional 12-inch squeegee and 10-inch microfiber washer for streak-free glass.
