What is it with the E-Z Detail Brushes???

**Junebug** · 02-17-2010, 08:45 PM

I don`t want to jinx myself, but I`ve had no problems with mine. I do "baby" it, never bending and always rinsing, placing back in the plastic it came in. BTW, I was dragged to the Tanger Outlet Mall at Myrtle Beach, while waiting for the wife, I found the Fuller Brush store, I bought a dryer brush, makes a `````in wheel brush for tight places! Oh - and only 10 bucks too.

don`t bend the brush, or best of all buy 2, bend one and leave it like that, don`t bend it back...bending it back and forth will weaken the metal, causing it to break...

I think that`s the best answer. I reallize they shouldn`t be for delicate use only, but they do need to be treated that way for optimum life.

So my take is..... Don`t Bend It Ever!

Well, if you can never BEND it, then why was it made "bendable" in the first place???

I have a good old tampico bristle wheel brush that is made of way stiffer wire, that you can buy at the BMW dealership for alot less $.

I have never heard of a "bendable brush" that is being sold for top dollar that you can never bend because if you do, it will break.

They should have either not advertised it as bendable (even though it is), or in big letters on the package, said, if you bend this more than X times, it will break and leave you stranded on your wheel cleaning project,

When you are detailing for dollars, you dont exactly have the time to gently hold the brush, just so, and dont bend it because it wont go around that curvey spoked wheel, just keep adjusting your arm and wrist and body to make the curve happen, geez, that is not a good selling/engineering point in my limited knowledge of those things..

I say "off with their heads"

Exactly! We shouldn`t have to baby them. Cleaning wheels is a "heavy duty" job! We shouldn`t have to use a sissy brush on them!
