My gardiner sill has been used for about a year or so now, yesterday i noticed after rinsing that there was still a fair bit of sediment left on the window, just thought it was me doing a **** job, so out of interest i swapped to my slx25 which has a brand new gardiner sill brush, straight away no problems.
When i compared the two brushes the older brush is quite splayed and the corner bunch of bristles are down to 50% of the out of the box new one due to snapping or brick wear, what i was thinking is the old one hanging on to dirt and sediment like a flocked brush, or is it because of the shear amount of dirt and brick sediment on the windows due to the wind, or was i just doing a shoddy job lol
I did notice a massive difference in the way the old versus the new brush moves on the glass, the old one seems to grip the glass and doesn't glide until water gets under it, the new one just glides across it no matter whether the water is on or not, and the bristles feel stiffer.
How long do you use a brush before swapping for a new'un?
My extreme's lasted about 6 months before i decided to swap but i dont use them anymore as i prefer the sills, my old sill will now be my pvc brush, in fact thinking about it i have done ALOT of pvc with this brush which i bet has prematurely worn it.
