    Snow Removal

    Does it matter what kind of snow brush i use for removing snow from my vehicle? I would hate to use the wrong brush and damage the finish, thanks!

    Re: Snow Removal

    If you use a brush, you'll want to use one where the bristles have flagged ends. They don't sell the Oxo brush here anymore, I can't vouch for the brushes they currently sell in the store, but a lot of members use these:

    Re: Snow Removal

    I use the snow brum . I live in the snowiest city in the U.S. and it works really well. I allso keep a combo snow brush ice scraper in the truck. I used to work at a Lincoln Mercury dealership and we would use them to clean off the vehicles before we pulled them in for service. Saves a lot of time and they hold up really well but youll still need a scraper for ice on the windshield.

    I use the snow brum very carelessly. It gives me a chance to hone my paint correction skills come spring

    Dam some else thought of that.If there was some easy way for the public to apply a non stick safe spray , there could be some serious money to be made,but it's has to be cheap to sell it to the masses.

    Re: Snow Removal

    I used a Snow joe last winter to clear the snow from my Honda's soft black paint w/o causing any significant issues. The trick is to make sure 1) you've got a good strong LSP down before winter sets in and 2) make sure your pushing the snow and not touching the paint with the foam edge:



    Easy pezy.
