Title: Best brush/system for rising off?
Post by: cornwallwindows on November 04, 2014, 05:46:56 pm
One of my favorite brushes is coming to the end of it's life and I'm looking to get one that's better at rinsing off as it seems to take ages getting all the little bits off the glass, so I've been looking at all sorts, wide brushes with 4 pencil jets or spray jets, standard brushes with either. I'm not sure which way to go! I also like to clean the frames and spray them off too.

Mono-Filament Dual-Trim generally work best for rinsing off the glass.

Flocked are no good for rinsing I have come to love a sill brush but to me rinsing quick has more to do with liters on the glass as the crud floats off. I use a 10 a min pump and nothing rinses quicker even  flat roof conservatory crud just sail off. I obviously don`t run at full whack all the time, but it does help to work quickly. All this water saving nonsense is not for me. I put plenty water on the glass and never have comebacks even first cleans. If you don`t believe me try it.

Extreme brush mono filament for rinsing off as lightest brush even though it's not the best for scrubbing or rinsing on from a weight point of view.

Couldn't Agree more.

Decided to go for this: 12" Ultralite Double trim brush with 4 pencil jets. It came today, feels really light but pretty robust, hope it lasts longer than my last one (3 months!!).
