Post by: Paul H on January 11, 2014, 06:15:00 pm
Anyone have one and use it as an everyday brush?

 What your thoughts?


Just got one going to give it a whirl next week instead of my DT mixed

Awesome and not too heavy. Don't need to clean corners as the bristles find em for ya.

i used a stiff radius sill brush dual trim with very hot water and virosol today for 2 add on jobs.a conny roof clean and a full UPVC clean.its a great robust brush and has excellent scrubbing power but i wouldnt use it for regular window cleaning as for me its too heavy to use day in/day out.

ive got used to using the extreme stiff brushes for maintenance cleans as there so light and still scrub well for a lighter than light brush.coupled with a carbon gooseneck its the only way to work for me. ;) :)

Hi
I use the gardiners mixed dual trim sill brush everyday.
My only complaint is they are not long enough.
I love them myself.
Regards

It just didnt seem to sit right on the glass, because it has a curved shape i felt it was dificult to get the brush at the correct angle at the top/bottom of the pane and the bristles were missing( if that makes sense )
