Looks brilliant, if it cleans well enough I will definitely get it. Carbonfibre gooseneck sounds pretty good too! Complete with scraper?    

Seems to be a full trim brush? Really wonder what the splay will be like, and how good it scrubs.

This is what I love about Gardiners, they keep developing where some other companies might be content to just keep up or produce the same old stuff.

Copied from whom? Which part of this brush design is copied?

As far as we know there is no other WFP brush in the world that is like this brush. We had these brushes made over 1 year ago and have been waiting to bring the new Super-Lite carbon goosenecks into production so that they can now be sold. If you think that they are similar to another brush that has popped up on eBay then we are pleased that having seen & worked with both brushes they are completely different. We routinely buy any new brush that comes onto the market place to try and keep up to date with what the competition are providing.

The photo above is of the actual gooseneck. Detailed photos and videos will be published on the website at the beginning of November when they go on sale. We have had these carbon-fibre goosenecks in trial now for several months and we are extremely pleased with their performance.

From what I've read on here it looks like the brush in question will not fit onto the normal plastic angle adaptors.  However, would your carbon gooseneck fit onto such an adaptor - thus enabling a wider choice of working angles?

Thank you for the link. We also presumed that this is the brush that was being referred to earlier.  As previously posted, having had both brushes and used both brushes we can report that they are completely different.

I wondered that. I like the way the duel trim short bristles are more aggresive when the brush is pushed on the glass.

what sort of price will the goose neck cost and weight

Prices and weights will be listed soon on the website - they will start at £45 and about 70g for a standard size neck (12" reach).

The brush is designed to fit onto the Super-Lite carbon fibre goosenecks, however a plastic socket can be bought and screwed-on which will then allow it fit all standard plastic necks. The slight downside with this is that the sockets are deeper than the brush stock so the socket edges stick out above and below the stock slightly. This does not impede its use in anyway, but does look slightly odd. We are working on a solution that will look better. However the user that wants the ultimate in light weight will generally pair one of these brushes with the carbon gooseneck. The carbon gooseneck will not fit onto a plastic gooseneck instead the goosenecks use a quick release system that allows for rapid neck/brush changes on poles. Poles fitted with these carbon goosenecks will be able to switch in seconds to a different size carbon neck or even a plastic adjustable neck.

While it may take seconds to change a brush,it takes ages to take a hose off of a 'y' piece and replace, especially in winter. Unless you're lucky enough to have a hot water system or a kettle handy!

Thank you for the comprehensive answer.  That's a lot clearer now.

Its looks like it only has 4 rows of monofilament, if that’s the case it only has half the amount of cleaning ability compared to any standard brush. I don’t think that brush would be suitable for everyday work you will lose to much time and the brush will end up costing you a small fortune.

You don't need much for regular cleans, that's for certain. And for the rest of your statement, that depends entirely on the brush design. A bentley brush has a bazillion bristles, but that doesn't mean it cleans better.

[luther1]

Isn't it recommended for maintenance cleans,as per website? U'd be rather nieve to use it on a stubborn initial clean.
