Title: Be careful with the new Superlite.
Post by: [GQC] Tim on July 29, 2008, 08:39:46 pm

Just a friendly word of warning, the edges can be very sharp, so if you run your fingers through the brush to remove any dirt, take care, I've cut my fingers twice in the last two days, and they weren't small cuts (not big either, but painful enough)

Maybe there needs to be a bit more filing off the edges. It's sharp pretty much everywhere, but where I cut my finger, was at the edge where it sometimes hits the brickwork, very sharp.

Overall excellent brush, needs a bit of tweaking as said in the other thread, but it's a good one.  :)

just to be clear, did you cut your fingers on the brush, not the pole?

Yes I cut my fingers on the brush twice, blood dripping from finger.

I find that I get bits of leaves, spiders, general crap from the sills attaching to the bristles so thats why, only takes a second or so, only do it after brushibg downstais sills normally and only if "bitty".  Maybe I am paranoid.

Same here, I can't stand the brush being dirty. :)

I'm getting my Dremel out tomorrow, and shave some off that brush!
