Title: Gardiners Freebee
Post by: Richard iSparkle on March 17, 2012, 11:17:15 am: Just got my carbon gooseneck and it came with a gift from gardiners. problem is i dont know what it is! It looks like a large plastic clip, with a razor blade on the inside. must be for cutting something i guess? or stripping something? any ideas?

Post by: richardlingard on March 17, 2012, 02:34:07 pm: i dont like the scrapers, i attach a credit car to the brush if needed, but since i went hot i dont need to scrape anything it just flys right off the glass

Post by: Tomboler on March 17, 2012, 04:33:53 pm: i found the gardiners scrapers came loose on the brush (i did put the longer screws in) and didn't find them that easy to use either. Have a 2nd pole permenantly attach to a backpack onto which i put a scraper the wrong way round, if you can imagine what I mean, made it easier to see what was going on up there but that also came loose.
