Which Universal Brush (Montana) brush do you use for washing.

Thanks in advance,
Kajunman

Kajunman- I`m currently using their "Blonde"/premium ones.

Eh...I dunno...the regular one (sold as a Montana by others) was OK and might even be better in some ways since *used the way I consider appropriate* the whole approach is *SO* gentle that it can get, uhm...too gentle to get the dirt off efficiently. The Blonde BHB really *is* softer and on vehicles I let get really dirty I maybe kinda preferred the Montana. BUT..I decided to switch the Montanas to undercarriage duty (long story why) and even I draw the line at using a BHB for both that and the body proper.

(Note all those "might"/"maybe"/"kinda" qualifiers... :o )

Both the Montana and the Blonde passed the CD-test when new and, last time I checked, they still passed. But remember to keep testing them as those bristle tips *will* wear. Be sure to test any new one before the first use as ya just never know.

One last question. Do you the 7 inch or 10 inch brush.

Answered Kajunman via PM, but wanted to post it here too...

I don`t use that style of BHB, but rather have the regular/rectangular 12" one. Seems to have more, and slightly different bristles.

Upon reflection, maybe....get a Montana for the lower sections and a Blonde for the upper. Heh heh, I really *can* spend other people`s money!

But !oh man! do I worry that folks will try to use a BHB to make the process *easier* instead of *better* in the sense of marring-reduction via the foamgun-centric approach. I read stuff like "it`s so easy to cover large areas because the BHB holds so much shampoo!" and I think..."hello, major correction.."
