Wave Glide squeegee blade is said to custom-fit to any blade holder on the market using slots, not holes, eliminating the need to completely dissemble the blade holder when the blade needs replacement.  Integrated Paste Containment Wing reportedly requires no setup or operator involvement, virtually eliminating paste tram-lines or paste seeping out behind the guides. Easy to clean, with no nooks or crannies.
