To be honest I have mentioned it to a few companies, of which was Ionics. There rep was in Leeds visiting my supplier (last year), I mentioned the idea but seemed to shrug it off. Personally I thought it was a good idea, but never tried it until last week.

It works spot on.

 
So you're scrubbing with the velco teeth? No white scrubby pad?

Sometimes I try to scrub stuff off the glass with just the side end of my brush and it works. Your idea sounds like a game changer. /emoticons/smile.png

 
I'm thinking of putting my Gardiner plastic scraper back on my brush and this great velco idea one on each end. I wish the scraper wasn't in the middle of the brush. I might try to modify it to have one on each end on the top edge. I may drill new holes. So I could scrape or scrub crud off the window.

Your right. I have had many a chat with other companies about coming up with something to no avail. So i thought sacket, and put my little brain into overdrive. I don't like the scraper in the middle of the brush too, in fact I took it off. The side would be great, they could even add it onto the brush perminanlty whilst making the brush-head. It's not rocket science and would sell a lot of them. I don't want to be using another pole with a blade/scraper at the end, it defeats the object of speed. It all needs to be combined.

[/quote']If there is a lot of scaping or scrubbing with a scrub pad to do I like the deticated pole with a scraper on it. Sometimes I throw a piece of steel wool in a fixy clamp and use that on the end of a window washers pole. My fixy clamp has been modified so it's only about 4 inches wide. I took a hack saw to it so it's smaller now and easier to use. I hate the Reach Around because it doesn't feel balanced.

PS

I agree with you to scrub a spot here and another one over there I want one pole with no Reach Around.
