My favorite wheel brush is really starting to wear out after 10 years and the industrial supply company in Chicago has dissappeared.
I have purchased a couple of cheapie brushes (walmart, sears, etc.) but the bristles are <strong class=`bbc`>far too stiff[/b] to be of any real use not to mention the scratch factor.
How do people like the OXO wheel brush?
thanks.

I like both the wheel and tire brush. The tire brush does a good job of scrubbing the tires. The wheel brush works just as well but the bristles are softer.

After visiting OXO`s website, I now understand your responsehttp://www.lut.fi/~pristins/Ph/gif/pofig.gif. I did not know they were primarily into household gadgets. The car stuff looks like a newer product line for them.
Hey, I spotted a very cool carrot peeler at their site that we have and really like.

Got an OXO wheel brush just last week so I have not had a chance to really test it. I love the shape of the handle and it`s easy to keep a grip on it when it`s wet. For those of you with a dirty mind, I was talking about the brush just then......really!:D

I hit Pep Boys this AM and they did have all the OXO car brushes as you said. The bristles look about right to serve as a replacement for my aging, but beloved, wheel brush.

I was picking up some more Z16 (tire shine) and saw their new towels while I was there. They come in a packet of 4 and they state they are mainly for the Zaino Quick Detailers Z6 and Z8. They aren`t the cheapest things in the world, $25, but I thought I`d give them a shot. So, I washed both cars today and tonight I thought I`d give them both a wipe down with Z8 and try the new towels.
HOLY COW!! They are so soft and borderless and seriously feel like you are giving your car a nice massage. They are fantastic and if you are looking for a go-to towel for your quick detailing, give them a try, they are night and day better than any of my microfibers I normally have reserved for quick detailing.
Anyway, that`s my product review for the day!
Have a great week, keep `em shiny side up.:thumbup:

Yeah, I have a few of the Zaino towels.... You`re right about giving the car a "Massage"!!!!
Kind of expensive to use as every day towels, but probably the softest, nicest towels I`ve ever used!

Yeah, I`m not sure I would be able to use them as my everyday quick detail towel, but they are super nice with Z8 and I`m sure they`ll be great with the BF Quick Detailer as well.
