Sill brush is for someone whos been conned.
A brush is a brush essentially in this game. Use the brush on the end of your pole, the one you clean the glass with.
Lets face it if a sill brush is designed for cleaning sills it aint going to be any good for cleaning glass is it.

I use a gardiners sill brush and you can most def clean glass and sills with the one brush.

i use a stiff sill brush forv 1st cleans & a medium dual trim for everything else & its much faster than ordinary brush. oh wait !! it cant be faster i've been conned

ive use my normal brush,for glass and sills ,but dont feel im doing a good enough job,as i keep the brush at the same angle for sills and windows,is it best to change the angle to clean sill ?
-
I use the same brush for windows and sills if you stand back at an angle you can clean the sills and front edge of them just need to get used to it! I check when I clean insides of houses and all is good.

dual trim brush is my every day brush,when you clean the siils with it do you alter the angle,or keep it the same as when cleaning the glass ? i keep it the same angle but feel im not doing a good job

that what i do thanks for that has put my mind at rest

No problem mate just check next time you get chance if you clean some insides?

if you give them a good blast 1st time then they should only need a quick brush over after that, i usually nip my hose while i do it to save a bit of water, if you dont want a sill brush try a small gooseneck

I know exactly what a sill brush looks like, they have a convex profile. Thats it. It doesnt make them more capable of cleaning sills. Thats down to the operator. Sorry :)

trust me buy yourself a 55degree carbon gooseneck and brush of your choice.they are excellent at cleaning sills.you can get added pressure on the sills because of the angle and there great for windows as well! ;) ;D ;D
i find i can clean sills effectively even with an extreme brush with this gooseneck. ;) :) :)

If a sill brush does not clean the glass and the sill properly... then why have 500+ of my customers not complained?

It's all down to personal preference. Try both and see which you prefer.
Personally, I have never used a sill brush. I just use an ordinary Gardiners brush. The new 90 degree sockets and quick release angle adapters are set at the perfect angle for most first floors providing you can stand back a comfortable distance which you should be anyway to avoid neck and eye strain, let alone getting wet.
You may have to change the angle down slightly if working in a confined space. ie a lane or somewhere to clean the glass and sills correctly. Also to stop the water running down the pole and getting your hands wet.
The brush should hit the glass square on.
