These are a different type of fan jet (Cleantech's) that are fitted to a brush I use for Fascias/soffits.
Because of the angle of the brush, it's good for getting under gutters and the fan jets 'power wet' every 'nook and cranny'and rinse a wide area without using too much water.

wher eye ge tthat brush and did ye modify the angle of head on it ? looks to me like afence painting brush

I got it from Aldi. It was that shape. It was either a 'fence painting' brush or a decorator's 'dusting' brush.

I normally use a Gardiners single trim for Gutters but the jets are too wide so i was thinking of going down the flocked route with fans. I quite often use a cut down Bentley but they don't take a lot of stick.

All you need now is a tin of Ronseal fence paint ;D ;D ;)

That's brilliant!
That brush will get right up between the gutter and the fascia board and into the nooks and crannies of the gutter support brackets. And it's small enough to really get into the corners where the downspout leaves the gutter.
This is my brush below. I'm going to fit jets to it like yours as soon as I can get hold of them!

I have allways found it strange that no suppliers sell a brush specifically aimed at the cleaning of the areas under guttering.The brackets holding the gutters up are a real pain when they are full of cobwebs etc...
Come on suppliers get your act together.. :)

I agree completely. A regular brush just won't do it. You need something not more than inch and a half thick and with fairly long bristles.

so how you angle the head? loosen it off and then use self tapper to secure at angle?

???
Stand away from the building so that the pole is at a 45 degrees angle and turn the pole in your hands - the brush will either point horizontally towards the fascia, or vertically upwards to reach under the gutters.
