THE PERFECT COMBINATION IMO SL-X AND SL BRUSH
« on: July 31, 2008, 04:13:46 pm »
These two combined make up a super power of cleaning action!!!! lol Together they are just spectacular, such a light stiff and compact pole with a light brilliant brush at the end.

Although the Super-lite brush isnt quite as good as the Tucker it amazing and I think I might be giving the Tucker a break for a while to see how this combo works out in the long run.

So to cut a long story short the SL-X is the ultimate pole in my humble opinion  ( So no Harris replies!!! ) and the Super-lite brush is the ultimate brush if you cant be bothered modding a Tucker or for any high level work. I also look forward to receving a single trim version of the brush and we will see how that performs too!!!....long live the SL family!!! Luke

Presumably you've got the dual trim (now out of stock), pics of that seem lacking in bristles, what's your thought?
Debating whether to wait for the new lot of dual trims or go for the single trim :-\

Alex says that the DUAL TRIM splays better than the SINGLE TRIM, so if I had to reccomend one on that basis, already knowing how the D TRIM works, then yes, buy a D TRIM. I will do a comparison between both of them later though.

If youve got high level work too, then the D TRIM would be better. I dont really think its lacking bristles to be honest......but that thought might chnage, Luke

I find that I do miss the inner bristles, I lack scrubbing power in my opinion.

My first reaction about the lack of inner bristles was what? But after using it for a few days I'm starting to think the lack of bristles is a good thing as the water just falls out the brush. I've not seen another brush that rinses like it. As for scrubbing power, the inner bristles are more for birds mess that you would target between the two jets, so there would still be enough bristles.

I totally agree, my first thoughts were oh not much in the way of inner bristles but in use its a fantastic brush. The bristle length is perfect for covering all the frame, the splay is great, not to stiff or too soft. The best brush I have seen for rinsing on  ;) An excellent brush IMO  ;D ;D

I dont really think that your 2 weeks wfp experience can really make a good judgement on different brushes scrubbing power

2 weeks? Almost 3 months now, and I have used quite a few brushes. Don't tell me it took you half a year to figure out what a good scrubbing brush is?  ;)

It ain't rocket science people....

This brush is near perfect, it's just that the inner trim doesn't cover the full width of the brush, an full inner trim does help with very dirty first cleans, and also for frames it helps loads I feel. If it's just a maintenance clean, the brush fantastic for that regardless.

I'm happy with it, don't get me wrong, the weight is brilliant.
