Is there a big difference between the Daytona Speed Brush (http://www.autogeek.net/ezdebrfca.html) and the this brush 16 Inch Wire Wheel Brush (http://www.autogeek.net/16wiwhbr.html) (think it's made by "Magnolia")

The Daytona is 3x the cost. Perhaps there is something that I'm not thinking of.

Thanks
John

The Daytona Brush is bendable to get behind spokes and fit into intricate areas - that brush doesn't bend.

That's a really big difference. Do you know if the flexibility of the Daytona prevents it from being apply to apply a little cleaning pressure?

As I have no experience with either, I thought I would include a picture of the rims.

You can put some pressure but I wouldnt over due it. I like the Daytona Jr the best but all three have their purpose

Im about to jump on this deal:

The Daytona Brushes are the best out there IMO. The little one fits behind the caliper - where nothing else will go. You can bend them to clean behind spokes and the rotor hats as well. People seem to love Wheel Woolies, I bought them all. But the Daytona Brushes are still my go to.

I find all types of uses for the Daytona. I use the Jr. on wheels, engines, exhaust tips. I mainly use the reg daytona for getting behind the inside wheel barrel and the pro is good getting wheel wells if there isnt much space.

I just got my regular Daytona brush and the junior a couple weeks ago. Love them so far.

The 16" wire brush would make me nervous. That wire in the middle doesn't look coated and could scratch.

I don't understand how anyone can use a Daytona after trying a Wheel Woolie. I feel like i need a Hazmat suit when using the Daytona from all the chemical/grease/brake dust spray. The last time i used my Daytona before selling it, i needed to use Gojo pumice hand cleaner to get the crap off my face.
