I find just separating my poles, and squirting a hosepipe down them does the trick lovely.

I've also just used the hose from my pump, if I've been working and managed to get sand on my pole.

This industry really pee's me off sometimes. $14 for a piece of tat to shove up your pole when a flush of water does just the same job. Unbelievable!

surely some cotton wool around pole hole held with some elastic band or something would do the same trick , however the pole that I use is a super max stripped down to an 18 , I have had it for four years used and abused day in day out....never needed a small brush on a john guest fitting yet

Yes, thanks, I did; Gardiner's red hose.  Fitted them both today and they seem to work no problems.
