Question about Craftsman Pressure Washer Tool.......

So I was walking through Sears earlier today and began browsing their pressure washers. I came across a tool that is put on in the place of the wand. The tool is a bristle brush ( that it says will not scratch paint ), that I believe spun.

I was curious as to if anyone knows about this? I'm an express detailer in Florida so time , considering I'm express, can be important sometimes. Has anyone ever used, heard, ect of this piece? It seems like it would make scrubbing a lot easier and quicker. Just wondering as a pressure washer is my next purchase and learning about this tool may have an impact on my choice.

I remember seeing something similar "AS SEEN ON TV" maybe by Simoniz or something and would not suggest it. Being the circling and hard bristles, these products scare me personally.

I will have to agree with boys, I would be scared that it would really swirl up the paint.

Re: Question about Craftsman Pressure Washer Tool.......

I think I found the attachment you are talking about on the Sears website. This seems decent for cleaning up wheels and maybe even tires, but OTC brushes/accessories are usually more aggressive than what the stores and product manufacturers claim. I learned the hard way that a "clear-coat-safe" wash brush, for example, is only good for cleaning my wheels and my front grille.

My point is that I have a feeling this attachment will instill a lot of new swirls, especially once the brush accumulates a fair amount of dirt/dust.
