Title: constructor brush
Post by: nathankaye on February 03, 2016, 12:38:19 pm
Hi all.
Lots of talk on here about brushes and for good reason. I switched from 14yrs trad to wfp last yr. Def using carbon poles, really feel for ones who opt for hybrid or cheaper glassfibre. But what I also have quickly come to appreciate, a good brush is so sooooo important.  So on that note, has anyone tried those constructor brushes from reach-it? What do u reckon to them?

Ive seen wagga's vids and perri's. Just wondered if anyone else has tried one out and which configuration.
Ive started to use four pencil jets on brush and found im doing a fraction quicker per window. Plus the  rinse starts at the top of the brush,  so wondered if was better or if it caused problems instead?

A water spray bar above a brush is nothing new as is most suited for large areas of commercial glass so can be scrubbed and rinse on the glass at the same time. Mind with a small width 10" constructor brush being over 400 grams not having the brush configured with a top rinse bar would be hard work I'm thinking  to rinse off the glass at any height. I dread to think how much a 24 " constructor brush weighs,

That is the problem when you get given free stuff to do a review on as really wagga don't give a bad review on anything so people are really none the wiser.

It would be better if he gave an honest opinion,everytime he tests or receives something it's a goer,why would anyone rate a reach-it pole after using a SLX or extreme also he raved about the liquidator but the ones he does himself do a far better job you can see in his videos his old wagtail flipper works perfectly.

Looks like something Nassa would be proud of.

The pole and all those fitting must weigh a ton.

I would hate having to spend that much time to clean 1/2 a window. It did come clean though.

He looks a nice fella though you've got to admit,you should see the video he did when he filmed without permission at someone's house that'll make you laugh.

That constructor brush looks to me it works extremely efficiently for what it is all the same.
If you’re reading this Perry (wink wink) I would be happy to trial one for you and give my unbiased review  :D

What an utter piece of junk!! ::)roll Makes you wonder what substances some of these guys are on!! ;D

I predict the same as I did for the wagtail jetstream- it will disappear into obscurity.

I have to agree with NWH, as nice a bloke as Wagga is, his credibility is dropping like a Idaho thermometer in January!

A good idea but released to early imo  should have been tested for longer , it don't last 5 mins and I have heard not very good feedback so far it is ok for the yanks as they don't clean as many house as we do

Wagga likes anything free,job done.
I remember him criticising the Gardiners poles saying they don't last five minutes while banging on about how good the freebie was ::)roll
Recently I've seen a video of him saying how good a Gardiner poke was (he didn't look happy though) in the end it was another freebie and job done!

Just to clarify - Wagga did not receive a free SLX pole from Gardiner Pole Systems :)

There is a story behind how he got this pole, but it is not my story to tell.
