So I now have a car with really nice wheels, and I need a wheel brush that can bend and clean behind the spokes and stuff like that. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with this one:

This is the Ferret brush from Chemical Guys. Anyone used it? Thoughts?

+1 - get the combo with the mini and full size. I wish I purchased them together but didn't think I needed it. The min is really nice for engines.

For the lugnuts I use a Swissvax wheel brush very nice

:iagree:

A cheaper version would be Race Glaze brushes - they work just as good.

Yeah, I can't decide between the Daytona brush or this one. If the ferret isn't built as well as the Daytona ones, then I'll go with them. Does anyone have any experience using this specific brush? That will help me decide...

I have used one similar. They bristles aren't as long and are more stiff. I like the daytona because it is very durable, flexible, and has longer bristles making it softer and can cover a wider spoke.

I have both the ferret and the daytona pair. The ferret stays on the shelf unless the wheels are really gnarly, as the bristles/stem are much more rigid and good for aggressive scrubbing of the barrel. The daytona is softer and much more flexible, with bigger bristles and is great for maintained to moderately grimy wheels. If I had to choose one or the other, I'd go Daytona ninety nine times out of a hundred. Just back it with a quality wheel cleaner and you're rockin!!

I use the Daytona on about 12-20 wheels a day. Paired with the proper wheel cleaner, its a wonderful tool.

I use the daytona speed brush with P21 and cannot get my wheels clean at the back. The face of the wheel cleans well becuase I am able to use my wool mit. I think it has more to do with the wheel cleaner. It has no "bite' and it also smells terrible.

I have the Ferret in two sizes and the Daytona in two sizes also. The Ferret is just too stiff, but good for really caked on brake dust. Though cost is much more, I would go with the Daytona combo from AG.
The Daytona stem is a little better than the EZ brush, but if you keep bending the stem it will break at the handle (weakest point). I bend the mini for spokes and leave the bigger brush straight. No need to bend for each wheel and weaken the stem.

The daytona is amazing! I use it with just shampoo and it does a great job
