Title: Arrow slit windows on barns
Post by: andyatkinson on October 05, 2011, 09:27:41 am: I get a lot of these on barn conversions and one barn i quoted for the other week had over 40! and there a pain.
Can nobody invent a brush about 3 inches wide with one or two central jet's? Or does something like this exist? might try and carve up an old brush head.

I have a handful on one building I do - I just unscrew the brush 90 degrees.

If they're deeply inset into thick walls; because of the angle of the brush to the pole, this isn't ideal.
