Anyone else using this brush?
Got mine today, opened the box and threw the hat and the pens away then got down to business.
Worked all afternoon with it. It's a strange one this is, it's soft and flocked dual trim with blue absorbent bristles in the middle. Normally I don't get on with flocked and don't like black bristles. It's pretty soft but the inner row look like they should be really stiff. In reality the whole lot splay on the glass whilst I was expecting the blue tips to do the work they simply splay ???
Strangely it does seem to scrub well - looks smart too. Early days but so far I can't make my mind up on this one - time will tell.
I would still like to see a brush with mega stiff bristles in the middle just to see how it would perform.
So who else uses one?

i feel the same as you same, doesnt feel like its doing a lot, but does clean well. im not too keen on the length of the outer bristles, could do with being a little bit shorter

Yes, they are very long. Sometimes if I'm unsure of something it will grow on me. I quite liked the soft black mono they made and have been using the dual trim mixed since they came out. I just thought I'd try this one out of curiosity. Can't say I like it or dislike it so far. Doesn't seem to drag like the old flocked version does.
Spoilt for choice. ;D

The reason the flocked "drags" is because it scrubs better. I tried the medium mixed sl months ago and it felt great on the glass and glides over it, but IMO that is because there is less friction from the bristles than the flocked (so less scrubbing power) and for me anyway did not perform well.
