Why would you use any brush for wall cleaning ?

Is no expert, just thought if it's a bit dirt and not that bad to aggravate the wall with  tfr or hypo or whatever before rinsing.

This company in Northern Ireland recommended Vikan brushes.  Gardiner said some people use their stiffest brushes but they aren't designed for walls

I some times use my brush I've got a Gardiner cladding brush .The guy I work with preferes to just to spray on and let it dwell but I think you sometimes get a better results working it into the render.

Depending what we are doing we spray the wall , sometimes we apply it through the brush adjitation will always give better results the dirt might look like it’s gone but generally most of it is still there it’s just translucent we have tried various methods like this over 10 years and it’s always better with a light scrub , we use normal stiff Gardiners supream brushes old ones that are no longer any good for the windows
