Title: Brush again
Post by: clarkson on February 11, 2013, 10:57:45 am

Hi
I want a new brush on the slx took the supalight sill brush off as found to spikey

What brush would you recommend have supa lite on the clxwith smaller bristles in the middle so cleans better.

I also like fan jets but the white plastic ones keep breaking so want to put the metal ones on

Any thoughts

Cheers

John

Best brush for scrubbing is the flocked dt sl.

I have not tried the xtreme, but is my favourite brush of the few I have tried.

Super lite mixed double trim is the best all purpose brush and fitted with the new fan red fan jets will keep you happy.I found the don't fan on the glass, but lift them off and the fan well I like the noise they make.

You will find that the new red Fanjets are many times stronger than the older white Fanjets.

Currently our most popular brush is the Super-Lite DT Medium-Mixed brush. Works well in most situations. Although my favourite is the Xtreme Medium-Mixed as I like the lower weight.

I  disagree   , i  find that you need  a brush  that is not too light  for doing tops as you need some weight  for  pressure and leverage  for effective cleaning .

Would it be correct to say the extreme is more suited to a stiffer pole such as an slx due to less weight required against the glass and the super light for a clx?

I'm in too minds weather to get a CLX or a SLX in the next month or so. It is anoying when the the pole bends a lot like the above pictures.. am curious to see what it would be like with a extrame or something.

The Xtreme brush is well suited to either pole type. It is favored by those who like the lightest brush available rather than being better suited to a particular pole.

Having said that it would seem slightly wasteful to spend £500-£1000 on an Xtreme pole and then put a heavier brush on the pole - my choice would always have to be the Xtreme brush on these Xtreme poles.
