    Awesome job, this helped me so much. I really appreciate the way you explained each one. Just picked up one of the Gardiner brushes, I have the starter, but now I’m going to get the supreme. I thought the the flared out side blue/white brush was better for side window sills, but it looks like the supreme will be better. Anyway, love the knowledge and thoroughness

    Great review. I loved the intro.
    I've got the Ultimate stiff and medium, the Xtreme and the DuPont all in 35cm and they are all great brushes but as you say the Xtreme doesn't last long. You seem to have loads of scrubbing power with the DuPont but it seems to go a bit soft with hot water in my opinion.

    Great review, very useful.
    I purchased the same universal sill brush as you, and thought it would be amazing for sash windows, but also didn't get on with it. Found the angle of the jets was slightly high for my preferred angle and would jet water between the sash windows, couldn't get right in the corners and the bristles pointing down were too aggressive on old putty and could cause damage if not used carefully 😬.
    Still looking for the perfect sash window brush, going to try the new supreme dupoint brush next 👍

    It may not be the very best for cleaning but in terms of making the working day as easy as possible. 18ft extreme pole, carbon fibre goose neck, and extreme 26cm mixed medium hybrid head. Lightest set up possible. After a intense deep 1st clean, using sill brush head and for a regular monthly clean thereafter always use the extreme. Windows are very seldom ever dirty again. The lightest set up makes your working day easier, less fatigue, stress on body & quicker working = more jobs possible in day. Have the mindset set of your are not in the business of cleaning dirty windows, your are in the business of keeping windows clean ongoing

    I find the cill brush is fantastic, I haven't come across a window that can't be cleaned with it, including sash windows, maybe they aren't great for gutters which is what you was using it for but for windows they are brilliant.

    Using the ultimate as well as my main brush atm. The new supreme brush will have new TaperTec inner bristles, they seem to be even better than DuPont. Are you using larger brushes as well? I think a 45cm brush is essential too. To reduce the amount of repetitions on large panes of glass I use a 45cm flocked supreme. This is the only place where I set the controller to 99 flow, doing so, it makes rinsing on the glass possible, it takes about half the time and half the amount of repetitions. So same amount of water but fast and easy. (two weekly commercial job about 120 square metres). Don't tell anyone;-) they pay me the same:)

    When it comes to brushes, squeaky clean Dave did a video using a hot water brush when doing it first clean also using ubiqs 2000, I was wondering if you could use a stiff bristle hot water brush with cold water to get the really green horrible stuff off of windows on a first clean or would it damage the pvc using cold water with hot water brushes
