    I recently received my Swissvax detail brush and notice that it has a weird smell???
    smells kind of bad I am wondering if all swissvax brushes are like this like animal hair?

    Hmm, dont think I remember them smelling bad or having a potent smell. They are natural boars bristles so it could be possible.

    Also dont think I have ever smelled my brushes, just wax's :)

    I could smell the wheel brush when it was wet and I think I know what you're talking about. I didn't smell the rest of my brushes but I would say they all do because they are natural.

    They're all smelly, I got all three of those puppies (several of each kind, too) and they all have that same funky smell. Only really smells when/after it's wet.

    If you think that's bad, try smelling the Uber Wheel Brush (boar's hair) when it's wet...now THAT'S a smelly brush !!!
