Hi, we have been using Gardiner Superlite mixed dual trim brushes for years and are very happy with them. If any other Window Cleaners are using these Brushes what sort of wear life are you getting from them before replacement.
Regards Rob.

6 months tops.

i find extreme brushes last around 2 months if used most days
ultimate brushes 3 to 4 months
SL brushes 6 months-12 months
...and thats using cold water.

Mine seem to last forever. Had my extreme natural bristle over 7 months now and very little sign of wear despite it being used a lot (over 50% of my work).
Cannot say I have ever worn a brush out.
Still a good idea to change ones used regularly periodically though, as wear of the bristle tips although not visible, should result in less effective cleaning.

Thanks for the replies.our Brush life is about four to six months used daily with cold water system.

2-3 months for us.
Cold setup. Superlite flocked dual trim. Mostly residential, 5 days a week.
Don't like it when they start to curl at the edges too much especially on the ends of the stock. Can't get the corners of frames as easy, especially on sash windows. The whole brush then starts to have a banana look to it.
Love getting a new brush, it's like having a new tooth brush. Just much more expensive!

I’ve just replaced one of my supreme soft flocked that I bought the week they was released about 2 years ago lol
Extremes like others wear on the edges after a few months but I still could use them after a year but I choose to replace and refresh every 6 months or so anyway
