    Are these basically the same thing or are the Swissvax brushes that much better?

    I wanna get a set and was wondering if the Envy brushes are durable in the long term.

    Are there any other brushes that are comparable to these two?

    I think the SV brushes are a denser brush. I like the dense brush bc you can get more scrub power out of it.

    Are they not make-up brushes, which are too soft for detailing.

    Where is the cheapest place to get Swissvax brushes? Do you have to get them all separately.... I never seen someone selling them as a set.

    Get them from Phil and use your forum discount code.
    I use both SV and Raceglaze and tend to use the Raceglaze more.

    i have both of these brushes, and the bristles are not the same. the SV brushes are softer than the envy brushes.

    i feel safe using the SV brushes around emblems, painted areas. the envy brushes i just use for wheels, trim, plastics.

    Thanks for the suggestion mate!

    Can you use the "wheel" brush for stuff like cleaning the engine bay after spraying it with APC?

    So there are only 3 brushes then? (detailing brush, wheel brush, and the large pneu brush)?

    Ya you can use one brush for multiple tasks. Don't worry about using the same wheel brush for wheels, jams, engine, badges etc. As long as you rinse it it'll be fine.

    I got Envy brushes.....I think they are similar to RG brushes. SV's bristles are too soft.

    RG is Raceglaze. Their brushes look exactly like those Envy's.
