Looking for a new brush

[Viggers]

Getting bored with the brushes I have in stock, anybody suggest any decent all round brushes they are currently using. Thanks in advances

We have just ordered 4 supream stiff brushes from Gardiners we find them a good all round brush with hot water and they are ok for all jobs , windows , gfs , cladding,walls , they last about 3 months using them 8 hours a day 5 days a week not overly impressed with how long they last but they are a good brush

Yes you are right but aprox£144 for 4 brushes does seam a lot I find they are past there best after about 6-8 weeks , years ago I had the old vican sill brush that was like a concrete block but it lasted about 2 years lol ??? not that I would want to go back to them though : I still think a brush should last longer than 3 months though

Im Cold water unfortunately so I presume is will be a bit to aggressive for my set up, but interesting to hear your comments. Thanks

on my van

14" stiff ultimate, 4 red fans

14" extreme hybrid, 4x red fans

tucker dual trim, fans and jets

ultimate flocked, rinse bar and jets

ultimate medium mixed, 3mm jets

superlite compact, gardiner rinse bar

10" extreme hybrid, 2mm jets

I use the extremes 95% of the time.

Tucker for grubby first cleans

flocked for leaded

superlite for 10" panes

The extreme is the best brush for maintenance by a mile.

lordy,i feel inadequate now as I only use one brush for everything,i don't have the time or the notion to think hhmmm that's a grubby window I may need this brush or that brush for that-i'll just clean it and move on,even alex g uses one brush on jobs when he does some manual labour,brushes are chosen to suit your needs/round there no real need imo to have loads of different types in the van if you ever needed a brush for say small panes,its all dead money just sat there waiting to be e bayed or thrown away
