Title: Is this pole a decent one
Post by: lcwalker on February 19, 2011, 10:15:24 am
Hi im in stage of getting a wfp backpack setup, ive just bought a Shurflo backpack second hand for £85 now it's shopping for a pole. I thought this one looked half decent (but as im no expert) i thought id ask you for advice first, also if you think the pole is ok what brush on the listing would be best for a wfp newbie,heres the link thanks in advance.

you would be better off paying a little extra and getting a gardiners CLX pole

Is this the best brush for me?

 The Super-Lite® Brush Flocked Dual-Trim

its hard to say, its personal preference, i used a dual trim mono for first cleans as it as more scrubbing power. but the DT flocked is gardiners best seller.

Would i need a different brush for first clean than maintence clean or will one brush do both?.

i use the DT Mono for both, but it is down to personal preference, the bristles are quite still on the mono brush, but i rinse on the glass so i can use the flocked for this. But the mono would be suitable for first and maintenance cleans.

if you don't want to spend much on a pole you can start with a harris pole from B&Q .i still use mine light and rigid and i added duck tape on the bottom section to help in the winter .it's only going to cost you £30 with all the connections plus the brush.

Not true at all.I've used mine on about 10 first cleans with better results than any superlite.

Which super lites have you tried exactly?

Or are you just like Alex, an idiot spouting crap advice?

Alex said the same thing as you & his answer to my question was "I don't know, it was white" ::)

Yeah, real good, answer, NOT!

There are SEVEN different super lite brushes, ALL DIFFERENT!

Yes, I would advise either the 15 degree or 0 degree. Both very good & very user friendly. ;)
