Title: Gardiners Resineck - flipfast
Post by: Ian101 on November 09, 2011, 06:47:37 am
Had mine 2 days - bit weird at first but getting used to it quickly.

Found it great on windows over connies, garages etc as it keeps brush flat on glass no matter what angle your working.

Also good in a tight space.

Makes the job a little quicker which over a week adds up.

The flipfast angle adaptor is great - adjusts the brush in seconds and easy to put back to your normal position.

Can you get buy without it ??  - yes but for what it costs defo a good buy as it will save you time and helps do a more thorough job on the tricky stuff.

Having used the older swivels I have to say that gardiners version is a great bit of kit. It's lighter by nearly 40 grams and you can adjust the stiffness o the joint. Also you can get more extreme angles in it.

Blue frog, have you got a link for the bike seat lever can't find one :(

Have a flip fast but as things things are specialized can't get hold of immediately (unlike bike shop)

thanks lee.
