I am tending to use the dual trim medium bristle radius sill brush with the 10 inch carbon gooseneck more and more. I think it is the best all rounder combo.

i use several brushes

radius sill brush(medium bristle) for most work

supalite flocked black brush(ideal for leaded,old wooden windows)

supalite mono (conny roof/fascia cleans)

ive also got a few non gardiner brushes.2 vikans,ones used for washing the van the other is a stiff sill brush for very dirty conny roofs.

i also have a brodex brush but it never gets used.

I Like the dual trim medium mixed brush and the radius sill brush too. Just ordered an aerial brush to try ;D

This brush is doing my head in. I love how light it is but nearly every house has white bristles sticking out of the frames where they got stuck and were pulled out of the brush. I have been usuing one for about 5 months now and nearly every house today had a bristle stuck somewhere on it. Some had 5 or 6. Will need to bring my ladders out next month to get them all off.

Red stiff brush for me as good at scrubbing as vikan but without the weight.

Personally what I use is the medium mixed dual trim for most standard work, the soft sill dual trim when I need to clean the sills and an Xtreme brush when cleaning over 45 foot.

Whats better for everyday use the soft sill dual trim or the medium sill dual trim? I have about a 50/50 mix of leaded windows and normal window and some have deep sills while other have normal sills.

Haha i have got the same


And my sill brush is same now , which are black bristles :)

I didnt like the sill brush to start with but now im cleaning frames with it and sills i see where it comes into its own its a great brush , the extreme is great for speed and accuracy
