    EZ Detail Brush Fix

    If you are like most detailers you probably have one or two (maybe even more) broken EZ Detail Wheel Brushes laying around. One of the biggest weaknesses of these brush types is that the wire portion that feeds into the handle is weak and tends to break off at the handle. Yes I know we can always just purchase a new brush but after having several of these just sitting in my detail drawer I decided to try and fix them and make them reusable.

    The solution was pretty simple and inexpensive. I ended up purchasing a one inch wood dowel at Lowes ($4) and along with some Gorilla glue and black spray paint. I now had a solution. I drilled a small hole in the dowel end and feed the wire portion into the dowel with some Gorilla glue. I even added a small hole at the end of dowel with a zip tie for an instant hanger.

    If you have several of the EZ Detail brushes laying around give this "refurb" a try !!!

    Awesome. I have learned to keep two brushes. One bent and one straight.


    Thanks Pat!
