    I'm looking to buy some good brushes. Carpet, wheel wells and tire brushes.

    Someone recommend some to me. I like OXO or Laitner (spelling?)brushes.:shrug:


    Thanks,
    Heath

    I used to be able to pick up some nice long handle brushes from a local store but they no longer cary them so I too am now looking for some long handle brushes.

    I agree though the EZ brush is a great tool and it lasts a long time, I'm still on my first brush and I've had it for over a year now.

    I also like the Swissvax brush, great brush.

    I've got a EZ-Detail brush and a boars hair wheel brush. I ordered a long handle wheel/wheel well brush from DD today. Hopefully i'll have it in a few days. Phil's shipping is so fast, it might be there wednesday!

    The best thing I have bought recently is the World's Greatest Boar's Hair Wheel Brush from DD. Until I got this I was using at least three different brushes on some of my wheels. The long soft bristles reach in and clean everywhere, even around the lug nuts.

    This wouldn't be my first choice for a neglected wheel, but for a wheel that you regularly maintain this guy works great.

    Hey Slanguage!!
    Got my order in from D.D. today. Had a fender/wheel well brush. I also have the DD boars hair brush. There is a local body shop supply store here locally. I stopped by there the other morning and found a stiff bristle brush with a 20in handle and a short one with a 6in handle. They open up at 7am so it was a little more convienent for me. We have a HF locally too but they dont open until 10am. I'll go boy there tomorrow and check them out. Thanks for the link. I have one of those lug nut brushes too!

    I read something on here or topia about Auto Zone having a long reach inner wheel cleaning brush thats easier to work with than the EZ brush, anybody know anything about that?

    Believe I read that too Gemini...I swung by Autozone about a week or two ago after reading that and nothing really stood out to me.

    They have a wheel/spoke brush thats made of short/thick mf strands. Its looks pretty decent. I dont know about the durability though.

    I really don't remember any brushes that stuck out to me from Autozone but I'll have a look tomorrow (if I remember) to check it out.

    Ah, that one! Yeah, I'm not quite sure if that would actually clean the barrels good enough. I think my concern with that brush was that it might be too soft to clean the inner wheels well. Most of the wheels I encounter are in pretty bad shape but I suppose this would be good for maintenance washes.
