Congrats on the car. Sucks about the ding. They are going to find everyway around fixing it. Too bad car dealerships don't try to take car of you like AG does. Opening a dealership soon ?? :p

I got the same brush in a kit from Wally World for Father's day.
I love it!
I'm looking for more of the interchangeable brushes for the wand.

Thanks!

Cons:
I think the bristles are too firm for leather...to be fair, I haven't tried it but I don't think I'll be chancing it. Definitely would not use on suede or uncoated leather.
Well, I just finished detailing the inside of my Accord. The leather in the car is in really good shape except for the cracked and worn driver's seat (it's 8 years old and had about 7 years of cleaning with no conditioning :(). So...I decided to go against instinct and decided to use the brush on the leather. I figured, the brush couldn't make the seat look worse.

Now I do keep up with wiping the seats down and conditioning them these days so I didn't think it was that dirty...no obvious stains. Boy was I wrong!!!! I mixed and sprayed a 5:1 solution of woolite on the driver's seat. I then gently scrubbed, in a circular motion, with the brown bristles. I could see immediately the soap solution get darkened with the dirt lifting off of the seats. I repeated this on all the seats, door panels, and parts of the dash.

Amazing!!!! :righton:This brush, woolite, and the PC scrub attachment got rid of stains that I didn't even know I had. My Accord's interior literally looks brand new.

One caution: the yellow bristles are definitely too stiff for upholstery. Even the brown bristles required a gentle touch..no vigorous scrubbing. I may just buy a second brush and cut the yellow bristles off to be safe. I'll keep one for carpet, one for leather.

Sounds good. It is amazing how leather sucks up all the oils and dirt, but still doesn't seem dirty.

I bought a Meg's Ultra-Safe Wheel Spoke Brush (http://www.meguiars.com/estore/products/product_X1160.jpg) at Big Lots for $2.99. Great deal and I like using the brush to get between the spokes.

I think I need to get one of those. I used to have a cheap one like that, and the bristles started falling out! I chucked it after that...

That interior brush is my all time favorite interior brush. I use it as a tire brush too, mainly on whitewalls or letters.
