    I love it, soft on fine wheels and does the job well. Only one issue, it smells like a dead animal sitting on the side of the road for a few days! Anybody else notice this?

    well its from an animal so it will smell. like when you sweat you will smell as well if you want you can give the brush a good hair wash and it should remove some of the smell. ; )

    All Boars hair brushes will smell, I have like 3 I have bought here. But used with soap awhile, rinsed, and dried, the smell goes away!

    +1 for the smell going away with some use.

    Smells worse if you use it with Sonax wheel cleaner tho lol

    Like earlier posted once used a few times the smell does go away. I usually soak mine in P21s bodywork shampoo for a few hours and it helps a lot when they are new.
