WHEN do you replace glides??

[Mike Brummett]

With my tires, I use a penny. Everybody knows about that one.

What about glides?

Maybe the Green One needs to send out a "gauge" that would tell you when it was time to change it.

OR may be there could be a color indicator, like on some toothbrushes or when you get near the end of a roll of adding machine tape.

Anyway, WHEN is it time to replace a glide?

When the metal wand lips start to show through.

You need to check the indicator on your toothbrush.

The Forsythe mathematical equation for glide use is - sq. root of the $ you paid = number of months of useful glide use.

If that doesn't work for you, then remember when it stops gliding, it's time to replace it.

Take the old one off and put the new one on :shock:

On wool carpets I find as it gets low, it tends to leave a line in the carpet where the smooth edge tacks have chewed it out.

My first 2 have both lasted 18-24 months each... can't really remember.

At $300 or so each, I feel I've had a good run our of them.

Time to update again.

You mean you don't carry a spare :? :?:

I was told to replace them when they fall off.
Not really sure where to get them, maybe the mikey black market

Just picked up a new one from GG, cause the old one was about flat. Still like the slotted version the best. Noe I need to replace the RX 20 glides....they're about gone.
