Post by: P @ F on September 26, 2005, 05:57:36 pm
HI chaps , just got myself another pole , ready for the jump to commercial stuff , i used it today and i cant help but think i have the wrong brush on the end of it !

 Its a universal 34 footer with long neck and 10 inch vikan , should i have somthing a little bigger or is this the norm ?

What do you guys use ?

The brush usually has nothing to do with the size of your pole  ::) it`s all about the size of the windows,obviously the bigger the window the bigger the brush,there can be windows on the 3rd or 4th story smaller than the ones on the ground floor so it would be best to get a bigger brush anyway to tackle all windows the size is really your choice,i use 2 a 10inch and a 16 inch brush and they both get used on different jobs,hope this helps,Gaz.  ;)

Bigger winows = Bigger brush
same as you would not clean a shop window with a 10"squeegie would you .
unless it was a small shop

Thats what i was thinking , it just struck me as a bit wierd having a 10" brush to clean big windows , in that case what is a good 16" brush to use , and where from and how much ?

  Cheers   Rich P @ F   ;D
