You might have heard lots of people moaning about brush lines being left on first cleans and having to go over them again,a flocked brush on first cleans or really dirty regular cleans will clean them a lot quicker and better initially without the need to scrub and scrub with a mono on a first clean.A flocked brush also works better on downstairs windows i find over the superlite brush,the superlite brush is superb on tops but i find it`s to flimsy for downs and tends to fold on itself a bit to much.

Can't beat a flocked brush with fan jets for cleaning soffits & gutterings. I use the small vikan swivel as I find it splays nicely under the guttering just right. Less scrubbing than a mono-filament as the flocked bristles do all the work of loosening the dirt and pulling the brush 4-6 inches away from the plastic allows the fans to spray the dirt away nicely.

Funny, i only ever saw one person complaining of lines being left with a dual trim mono. Let me think who was that?..........

It's one of the lightest. Mines even lighter as I filed it down to the bare minimum as well. It's better than the vikan sill brush for guttering because it's not so heavy and reaches into the awkward corners easier.

i was going to buy a swivel brush,... but one of my pole clamps is loose.

so my top piece of pole swivels.. hence, my brush swivels....so  i got one now.  ;D ;D

Good job Alex,are you going to fill the stock up with bristles like you have the new full trim on the new double trim,i think it would improve it even more there`s still a big gap on the brush doing nothing.Having more bristles wouldn`t spoil the splay.

Full trim on the new double trim? I bought one 2 weeks ago, and it still had the gaps around the jets.
