A brush above the rest, 8) if you want a good brush or any advice Gaz is your man he doesnt charge extortinat prices and i bet his brushes are the lightest on the market.  

Gaz did you sell that trigger? might be interested

Hi Brett,
i`ve got a couple of triggers left,
one is the old style that goes straight on a 3 section pole and the other is the new style that fits any pole but needs cable ties,
DId you fit that tap?

Andy,at the moment there is not a proper sill brush on the market,some are using the big heavy high/low vehicle cleaning brush as the head is shaped so the bristles face forward and down,
i have approached my supplier about getting a purpose built sill brush,
What i and others mormally do is to clean all the windows then adjust the neck so the brush faces down then wipe over the sill,
and i do all windows up and down wfp,

Gaz's brushes are just the job.

However, the swivle brush is a bit wobbley and you can't get quite the presure to scrub on the ends of the brush.  It will also, occasionally, catch on georgian pain frames and twist so water squirts to the edge of the window. 

But the versitility it provides outwieghs few wobble problems!
I use one ALL the time on my 18' upstairs pole.  Surprises me where I can thread it!!
