    Mothers Detailing Brush Set [2pk]

    I recently purchased the 2pk. Mothers Detailing Brush Set. I was kind of expecting the bristles to be a bit softer, [they have feathered nylon bristles] but I think I'll end up liking them just the way they are once I find a good use for them 1 day.

    Question for the people who have these brushes: What task or odd job have you found them to be really great for? Different brushes excel for different tasks, I'm trying to get an idea where I can maybe dedicate these 2 brushes for before I use them for the 1st time.

    Post your experiences or thoughts on this set of brushes. Thx.

    I like them for getting old wax out of crevices. Or interior for getting the crevices. The bristles arent to robust though, they bunch up and render the brush useless after a bit. I think the flaggin of the bristles gets tangled together or something.

    Mine showed up mangled & tangled... That was the 1st thing I noticed. I haven't even removed the display cardboard hang up they come in. I wish I could post a picture of them but I can't now that the app doesn't work... I really miss the AGO iphone app.

    I might just dedicate 1 of them for brushing my cat. I bet she'd love that! Lol.

    I bet these brushes are perfect for those spots in between emblems/letters that can often be caked with contaminants due to never getting proper attention on some vehicles. Only thing left to do is decide what liquid to choose for the perticular level of contamination. I would think a heavier dilution of Megs D114 [15:1] might be a good and safe place to start.

    The brush worked perfectly for this.. There's always been some baked on grit in between the SLS emblem on the rear of my car that I could never clean up, all my other detailing brushes are too soft to be able to clean it off. [I don't use toothbrushes for detailing] But this Mothers brush worked great at cleaning it all off w/D114. Didn't scratch anything either. Thumbs up to these brushes so far.

    I use them as Nick has stated here: http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/...fessional.html
    But I like the pointy rubber ends... Good for wrapping a MF and getting gunk out of cracks / crevasses.
