Title: Cill brush and swivel
Post by: Lee GLS on June 08, 2012, 06:35:41 pm: Is it just me, or are the Gardiners Cill brush and resi neck just no meant to go together, I've had a load or first cleans this week and when trying to clean the cills, the brush just flips over, I've tightened the screw and it then it's to stiff. I give up!!!

I have a cill brush on a fixed angle adapter , and an extreme dual trim on a swivel.

I hated mine at first carried round a small screwdriver at first constantly adjusting.
Now I have got used to it - let it go a little bit loose - great for over conservatories or working sideways.
Use the top of the window as leverage and you can swivel it any way you like -great bit of kit IMO.

If you use it with an extreme brush they are superb, I love it, I woulnt work with out it, but not with a cill brush.

What is it that you don't like about it? Also you don't the screw too tight.
