: You can buy squeegies at an auto paint supply place that will last

I also use auto body squeegies, have been using them for lots of years, probably still have some of the originals.

I also use auto paint mixing cups, same thing, the hardened epoxy when they are flexed pops right off. I still buy them in quantity, boxes of 100.
