Post by: edd on July 25, 2007, 08:31:37 pm

It came with 2mm commercial jets and if it lasts I will say one thing , this time I think that they might have got the perfect brush!!!!! :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o.

I have in the past knocked there brushes as being crap! but its early days I now
and I will let you now how its going

Maybe the search is over for the perfect brush upstairs only i think Vikan downstairs as it gets more abuse on the downs then ups ,happy EDD

Have you had one of there brushes before ? if you have they nearly look the
same as before BUT they are not some how!! and yes very light but they seem
 to get the dried on stuff off easier  and think that they are stiffer nylon mono
filament

caus I got an ionics off ebay the other day, a multipole, I'm not sure if it's the real deal though ( fake ), I really like it, I love it. it is dual trim crinkle monofilamnet, the bristles in the middle are really abbraisive, the ones on the outside splay nicely, it is also very light, I don't like the jets though, they seem too big ( thick flow ), Luke

like I said I had it fitted with commercial jets 2mm and dont use it con roofs
cos it might scratch the plastic
The standard jets are 3mm just take them out and fit 2mm but I have the NEW
brush that Patrick at Ionic s recommended

But remember you using that brush with hot water. (i think)

So the bristles might soften for you where as with a cold water system they might stay too stiff.

Just a thought?

no its mega I am sticking my name to it  ..well for now anyway ??? ;D
David I think they are £14.50  not had bill yet and I'm not sure if the jets are
extra knowing ionic s I bet that they are oh well I still can't believe how good it
is . Its probably like a black version of a Tucker brush which is white is that OK
trying to help EDD
I use warm water and this has not killed it yet but also use cold and that's fine
too I dont think it leaves black marks on the sills either like Vikans do :o

but the vans not back till later /I am still waiting for your new brush Alex but

im still going to say that this brush is excellent and even a week later i`ve
got another one it weighs 450g but it feels so much lighter than a Vikan
it absolutely sails through any dirt because its a lot stiffer , marks out of 10
 im giving 10 so far.......... EDD
arrh yes the jets are included £ 14.50 plus vat del

Edd, whats the actual name for this brush and did you work out how much it actually cost?

Would it be the same brush as we saw on the High Speed Window cleaning video posted on here earlier this week.

Are you sure its that good. It looks the same as the old one which is bin-worthy.

I too got one off ebay, its an amazing brush compared to the Vikan, it has real scrubbing power, the middle bristles are so stiff, I can see them easily removing hard dirt, the outer ones are splaying and brilliant, it doesnt crinkle or curl like the old one, the only trouble are the jets on mine, they are too big, Luke
