Sharpshooter/Trident 13″ Glide

Description

A GreenGlide will dramatically improve the performance of the Sharpshooter and Trident wands, in both reduced dry times and easy of use.

When peeling off the backing of the rubber gasket make sure that the gasket and glue are warm or the adhesive will stick to the backing paper.
Clean off the bottom of the wand head with Rubbing Alcohol, Electrical Contact Cleaner or Carb and Brake Cleaner and dry off the plastic well before installing the gasket.

*Includes and new gasket and 4 pc screw kit!

Slot Glides- The best choice for dirtier carpet that has debris in or on it and for cleaners who prefer some resistance or grab at the carpet to wand interface. Also, our Slots have recessed bridges so there are no lines left in the carpet when the glide is new. As the face of the Glide wears down the bridges can be recessed again with a knife, razor or Dremel tool.  FYI, 80% of our Glide sales are Slots.

Hole Glides- The easiest to push and the best choice for cleaners with back pain, elbow, wrist, and shoulder issues and for those wanting the quickest dry times. Holes are also great for cleaning area rugs on location as the rug won’t lift up as you clean the edges and corners.  Optimum for wool carpet and rugs. Dry soil removal prior to wet extraction is a must in most cases. The best choice for portable extractors too!

Hybrid Glides- Fits in between the two above, easier (some say much easier) to push than a Slot but dries slower than a Hole. Wands with large vacuum chambers such as Evolutions, SharpShooters, AW29s and the PMF Mach 12 &15 perform noticeably better with a Hybrid. Some debris can be extracted through the slot portion of the vacuum pattern, unlike our Hole pattern, but dry extraction is still recommended. This style leaves lines on some pile types and may need to be groomed after cleaning.

******This Glide can also fit the Trident wand from Smack/US Products. On older models you will need to cut out the center bridge and use small wood screws instead of the sheet metal screws. Please be aware that Trident wands had a few variations and to fit the SharpShooter Glide on to it will require lots of cutting, possible trimming, use of a heat gun, compressing the heck out of the foam gasket or possibly not using it, some cussing and possible relocation of the end screws, so buyer beware as modified Glides can not be returned. But it will be worth it…******
