Title: Brush marks?
Post by: Blackadder on January 04, 2015, 06:34:45 pm
I started getting a few brush smears with my old super lite brush, so I put my brand new one on and now it's even worse? Not sure why it's happening? It's drying clear but it's taking a lot more time rinsing off, anyone had this before or know what might be causing it?

Flow too low ?

Have you checked that your water is not contaminated ?

I don't think it's a contamination problem, water still at 0.01 and it's happened on last few tanks, will try a higher flow to see if this sorts the issue. Cheers Darran.

Your brush is not splaying properly.Try a little more pressure on the pole to the brush and more water.

Maybe its just me but this makes no sense. Can you elaborate more ? How do you know you're getting smears, and whats the issue if its drying fine ? I'm just confused from reading it.

I see that all the time it still dries ok doesn't it? Flow looks a little low to me.

Seems to, I'm glad that this is common place, been WFP for 6 months and last couple of weeks is the first time I've seen it.

New brushes do that sometimes. Could try giving it a clean with degreaser but if it's drying ok don't worry.

That's just the mark of the brush scrubbing the glass it just shows up on some types of glass more than others
nothing to worry about.
