Obviously, I'm going to say I love the brushes. It's why we stock them.
MY POINTS
The EZ Big and EZ small are super handy for getting into tight areas. The ends can come bare so don't get lazy with the brushes get down and personal with your wheel so that the brush enters in and out no need to push the wheel brush up against the wheel so that the centre shaft runs along the wheel. It's the bristles that do the cleaning.
Also super handy for front grills etc. on your vehicle.
They do create a decent amount of sling. So we clean the wheel as we squat to one side of the wheel. this reduces "splat to the face" and it's more your arm that gets covered. One easy hand wash and sorted. 😎👍🔔
The EZ Go is my "go to" brush (pun intended). As you describe Jon, it's a solid bit of kit. As long as the diameter of the handle can get through your gaps, then it's the safest and strongest brush I have ever used. Using it for arches is also a cracking idea. I'm going to try that when I'm home.
WHEEL WOOLIES
For me, the wheel woollies lack bite and also "hold on to" the dirt into their thick pile so I feel this would create more damage than the bristles of the EZ Brushes?
BUT I do find the Wheel woollies super helpful for removing Tar and iron from the hard to reach areas. The wheels are already clean so no danger of them "holding dirt". The Tar / Iron removers help to break down the deposits so using the "Microfibre on a stick" I feel is a great tool for decontaminating the wheel barrels.
As Steve mentioned, the 45degree wheel woollies are amazing for the BMW M3 spokes gap between the alloy rears and the wheel barrel.
OTHER BRUSHES
The standard No-16 and No-20 brushes are amazing for all of faces and wheel nut cleaning.
Also as mentioned a wash mitt also does a great job of cleaning wheels whilst keeping your hand safe. It helps to prevent scratches from the brake disk guards which can be quite sharp.
Thank you so much for this fantastic review, Jon.
Love the discussion your community creates. 😎👍🔔
Alan - AMDetails
Do you use the EZ go in the wheels? so are the bristles soft?
Hearing you call it the E Zed as opposed to the EaZy was pretty 😂. Oh, and I saw the guy from Dallas Paint Correction suggesting that you just use a toilet brush to get into your arches/wheel wells. A cheap tip, as you can often find them here in the states at the dollar store or your equivalent. Have a good one man n thanks for the tips!
I agree with your point on Wheel Woolies, as well as microfiber madness brushes, holding onto dirt more than these brushes. Auto Fanatic mentioned that if you have glossy black rims you should use Wheel Woolies to reduce scratching, but I disagree with him. Also, for the love of god, if you want scratch free rims you should NEVER buy rims with a glossy black finish lol
Great brushes. Had both of mine for about 5 years now. Smaller one, the handle snapped a couple years back so i ended up wrapping the broken metal in multiple layers of self-amalgamating tape. I only use the smaller EZ brush for exhaust tips. The larger one of mine the handle's also snapped so I drilled a new hole in the handle on the opposite end and glued the metal back into the handle, then once again wrapped in SA tape. The end "nipple" on the larger brush also started to deteriorate a few years back exposing some metal, so I wrapped the end in SA tape also. Great stuff that tape, rubberised and very strong once its set. Awesome brushes.
Tip for cleaning them and restoring the shape... soak them in a bucket full of really hot water for 5-10 mins. Works a treat.
Best reviews on the internet. Honestly I learn more about the products and process of detailing watching your reviews than anywhere else. Thanks for taking the time to make them.
A bit late to comment, just purchased the larger cone shape and the wheel arch brush.
Well made up with these, blinding addition to my kit.
Wasable to clean four alloy wheels in 15 mins and perfect. This usually takes for ever and never as clean as they are now.
Sprayed with the usual Virosol cleaner and the brush did the rest. If you buy this brush (no need for the smaller) it will be money well spent. Trust me, go get these two and you will be as pleased as I am. 10/10. Cheers Jon!!
Just have to say after watching this review I finally took the plunge to get the large brush ordered after a long time thinking about them and not bothering. All I can say is get one bought it's the best wheel brush I've owned and my wheel woolies don't get a look in now! Makes cleaning my wheels a joy rather than the chore it once was. Thanks Jon!
Must have had my large and small E-Z (pronounced easy!) for nearly 10 years now and their still going strong. I use the woolies too depending on how I feel as I don't have clearance issues. The only slight downside to the E-Z's over the woolies is the spray back you get. You can get covered in mucky brake dust solution but I just stand to the side to reduce that. Never seen the new E-Z before, may give that a go.👍
I bought 2 different sizes of these EZ Detail Brushes on your recommendation and they are amazing. They are really well made and Worth every penny. They shift the break dust like no other and definitely glad I got both. They get stored in their own bucket and used every weekend.
I bought the larger of these brushes in around 2014 and I still use it today. None of the bristles have fallen out or flattened. I can honestly say this is the best wheel brush I have ever used and as proven lasts years even with regular use.
yes I mean this is 4 years ago I made this video I still use all 4 brushes, and like and you dont go in heavy handed with them they last forever.
A very thorough review on these brushes. They have served me well over the last 3 years. Only issue I've had is that the handle has come off. Managed to superglue it back on.
I have the large brush and I agree, it works so well. I know you say that you worry about it bending but I actually bend mine on purpose to ensure that I get behind the wheel spokes. If this causes metal fatigue from being bent and then straightened I don't think it's the end of the world. This brush costs about the same as 5 cafe coffees, in the grand scheme of things it's nothing.
Glad I watched this review before splashing out on wheel woolies, the EZ large brush gets between the barrel and brake shield so well I'll never need another brush 👍
My small EZ just broke in half. I use it exactly how Jon was using it in the first shot of brushing wheels. The bristles were still in good nick. The twisted metal core snapped. Will be getting another excellent brush. I’ve got the bigger ridged brush also and after 5 years it looks like it will last forever. Another brilliant review.
Ive just been using mine.. so its 9 months old now. bristles are a bit worn.. but shaft is ok. the thing i will say about this brush is that mild steel metal core isnt ideal.. really if they want to improve it they should use something more robust. the more mild steel bends the more it weakens. Im pretty mindfull of how much pressure I use when i work this in the barrel. sooner or later someone will improve on the design and ditch the mild steel..
Love the review! I bought the EZ Go recently after having bought the wheel woolies and I must say that I'm very satisfied with my purchase.
I've been using the brushes for several years now. Great for wheels and I've had no issues with them. I agree the small one I don't use much but it came in the set that was on sale . Great review.
Been using the larger of the two wheel brushes for about 3 years nearly since I actually picked one up from Alan at AMD when my car was in for correction and coatings by him and the team and have used it on various finishes of wheels and can't fault it. It's my go-to wheel brush and wouldn't be without one now! As mentioned I just use a seperated wheel designated wash mitt for the wheel faces and any missed bits between the spokes.
Only other brush I use is a smaller wheel woolie that's at a 45degree angle which is great for behind spokes or calipers
Been using the small EZ brush for many years and it is as good as Forensic Detailer says. The protective rubber/plastic bit on the end has now worn through and I can hear it hitting the calipers etc which is a shame as there is plenty of life left in the brush. As long as I'm carefulish though I shouldn't scratch the barrel of the alloy, Having said all that I think the one to go for is the large one as it'll do everything the small one does as said in the video. Great review of these efficient/effective bits of kit.
Jon your review was dead on, I use all of these brushes and agree 100% with your remarks. The small brush is better suited for motorcycle or engine bay details but the larger is a must have for a barrel clean. The arch brush (aka the toilet scrubber wand) is a great wheel well brush but needs to be longer. I've had them for a few years and they are holding up nicely, definitely worth the money for the bigger ez detail brush. Thanks for putting this review out there.
Agree just get large one. Sent the little one back and am on my second large one, even though it rusted through the shaft after a year - I always dried it. Bought a set of wheel woolies and never used them after first try - similar experience to you. EZ large is best wheel brush IMO
Great video. I use a similar brush that I got half price from Tesco £3.50, think it's Simonize. It looks very similar in construction and is great for doing the barrels. I like the look of that wheel arch brush though, I've not found anything suitable yet so I think I'll get one when I get some more stuff from AM DETAILS. I've been a fan of his channel for a while now, and he really does do some good videos, just like yourself Jon 👍
Woolies chemical guys have a small one that fits anywhere. I love that set expense but soft no scratches wouldn't buy anything else. Thanks I love these videos you do.
Great looking brushes. Just find it annoying when cleaning the barrell inbetween spokes and the bristles flick product at you. Thats where wheel woolies are better in my opinion, but they lack the ability to fit in small gaps as you said. As always great video!
As a professional detailer I feel your pain.
Sam Patterson I hate it when that happens I get black dots all up the arm which I'm holding the brush with
you know what that is true. my right arm in the dialogue video is testament to that :)
The flicking dots are totally the only downfall of these brushes. They were also the only brushes that could get rid of that crazy sticky german brake pad dust on my BMW. I recently tried the wheel woolies on my Honda and they seemed to be more than adequate for the brake dust coming off of that, so I suppose its like anything else there's a time and place for everything
The only issue I've had with my set is the wooden handle coming off on the small brush, managed to glue it back on though.
Thanks for this. Just got mine today and bristles were bent all over, due to being in packaging so long, so I wasn't impressed at first. Thought another crap brush. Saw your review though and put it in hot tap water in a jug and sprung back to a great shape. I'll be getting the other two brushes now. What a great review!
Hi Jon, I bought the incredimitt wheel brushes (flat one) and have to say it doesn't have a patch on the EZ brushes when it comes to cleaning power and accessibility. I still occasionally worry about 'damage', but I think that is more related to the old / cheap nylon brushes - I've no evidence of any damage and the fact AMD sells them gives me confidence. I've now taken to cleaning the wheel barrels with the incredimitt for the open spokes but using the EZ when it comes to the barrel area by the callipers - the incredimitt just simply doesn't fit (I've the same wheels as you Jon, M135i). I also use a wash mitt for the wheel faces and reach round the back of the spokes with the mitt to clean them (see OG vlogs). As you say in the VLOG the key thing is routinely cleaning the wheels so that ultimately your are removing light brake dust / dirt and have no need to 'work hard'. I am interested in the wheel arch brush and as I've heard good thing about AMD clay I can feel a double order on the horizon! Cheers Kevin.
Fantastic review - again. Me personally have always doubted manufacturers who claim nylon brushes don't scratch. Even with very hard clear coat I'll still choose wheel woolies every time, it's just that these Nylon EZ ones aren't suitable for all jobs, thanks Jon.
They will on soft-medium clear prolly to a lesser extent on the type of clear you "should" have on alloys, and the nylon on this brush is prolly thiner and softer than most brushes. Worth also considering the area you are cleaning with the EZ brush spends its life getting brake dust fired at it, and removing that abrasive brake dust with any form of contact will over time deteriorate the finish. your barrels are never really going to be flawless clearcoat.. but yes you can choose other formats and some will for this reason, but they also have their disadvantages.. The WW's in terms of access and the incredibrush in terms of perhaps not being agressive enough when scrubbing is required for really dirty alloys.. Its for this reason I think this format of brush would be essential for a professional valeter.. perhaps with other options as well..
I'm glad you've reviewed these brushes, I've been looking at purchasing them. I didn't know wether to get the small one or both. (Jag 10 spoke open spoke design) Now I have seen the size and you have explained how they fit into the smallest of gaps I think I will get both. I have been using a Halfords brush but I find it next to useless, it bends with the slightest of pressure and that's just getting it in-between the spokes.
Love these brushes. You can also bend them and use them to clean the back of the wheel spokes
I'm a wheel wooly man at the moment, but struggle to fit them between Audi's disc brake heat shields and the wheel barrel so may have to give one of these a shot 👍🏼
I was using a Halfords wheel brush, but I’ve gone through 3 in 12 months (they just rust and snap!). Just ordered a large EZ 👍
I personally think they are great, but I have to say, I find myself reaching for the wheel woolies every time. My advise would be to get both. You can never have enough equipment 👌🏼👍🏼 Great review John.
These are my favorite wheel brushes, don’t think I’ll bother to try anything else. These, with some lamb skin little mitts is godlike
The EZ arch brush is the only one I don't have Jon and yes that's a wooden handle brilliant brushes love them 👍🏻
I bought the GO brush to try out. I've been using the large Wheel Woolie in the wheel arches and it works reasonably well. IMO, the GO brush is better in this application - it's easier to use and it cleans quickly. I was surprised by its effectiveness.
Thought about a loo brush for arches but won't hold any product .
Got both the other sizes think the go brush be next
These last and last Jon . Had these exact 3 for years . Must have literally cleaned at least 200 wheels plus .
I don't agree with you on this one. Had the little one for 1 years and the handle wouldn't stay attach to the brush. It's attach like a screw on the mettalic string, and it failed after 1 years of cleaning my car. A friend of mine also had the same issue which is a shame for a 25 $ brush. Will try something else soon
I find the big ez brush amazing for cleaning alloys it gets into all the spaces you need it to although it does sling product abit it's worth it, also the chemical resistance of this brush is super I cleaned a friend's alloys and without my knowledge a cv boot had shat itself covering my brush in cv grease but all was not lost heavy degreaser and alcohol and it was like new again after using it for over a year the rubber "nipple" wore through i used two layers of heat shrink and its functional again, I also noted after shoving it scrunched up in a small detailing bag and it came out flat I thought it was ruined I ran it under hot water and like magic the bristles seem to have a resetable memory it was wide and ready for cleaning again I don't think il find a better brush I keep meaning to demote the old one to the engine bay as it's also amazing for that I've heard so I will be investing in a new one as always keep up the amazing videos
My 5 spoke wheels are so nice. I can get in there with my hand and a finger mitt and clean the whole wheel. I still use the small one to get around the calipers.
Just be careful of the tip of the ez brush coming off as it's metal under there, I've went through two brushes in over 10 years they are super durable, since giving up detailing for a living I've went to wheel Woolies which are needed with BMW spider alloys lol. I highly recommend the ez brushes though.
Spot on as always Jon been using these a while now definitely the best wheel brush I've ever used
Also check out the Gyeon wheel brushes, because they have microfiber/mitt like material. It's softer for the paint/powder coat and might even clean better. I haven't bought/used them yet, but think they're at least as good.
I had one of these years back and it wasn't long until the rubber tip had come off. Unfortunately I hadn't noticed and I ended up with quite deep scratches on my alloys where I caught them with it. I've been using wheel woolies ever since and even though the large brush struggles to get in between my brake calipers the medium brush is fine and still going strong. I am keen to try out the Microfiber Madness Incredibrush though.
thanks neil.. ill be keeping an eye on that. maybe in 6 months time Ill uptime this video with a sticky post of how they look now..
How have you liked the incredibrush?
@@ForensicDetailing How's in holding up a year on Jon? :)
@@m4rtinjones wicked. bit sort of ruffled up, but totally still good, its not been used as much as a pro would use it though but going strong for me. The key is to not force it when your working it in the barrel. that mild steel shaft would be much better if it did not bend. thats the only thing I dont like about the tool. but if you handle it gently and just scrub in and out with low pressure around the barrel they hold up well.
@@ForensicDetailing Good to hear it's still going strong. Thanks for the update.
Great video. Been putting off purchasing a new set of wheel brushes for months. Will grab a set of these now!
I was using a set very similar to the Wheel woolies - they were ok for the cleaner wheels but didn't really touch the worse sets. Also they both lasted 5 uses which is pretty pants!
Spot on again Jon been using these a while now definitely the best I've used
I always loved how you guys say Zed rather than Zee lol
I just got myself one of these, bloody day light robbery at 21 quid lol but glad I've got it
This is a good test to here buddy, I think I'll buy one of the bigger ones I have a focusRS and the gap between the front calliper and the barrel of the rim is less than an inch I vet bought some thin microfibre pads on sticks the are good but can't get into the narrow gaps. I take my wheels off every 4-5weeks to clean them but it's a bit time consuming.👍
I use the Speed Master, which looks almost identical to the EZ. I really like that wheel arch brush. I may buy one and check that one out.
Just had the wheel arch brush delivered.hopefully use it tomorrow.
Look like very good brushes Jon. As others have pointed out though, I think the flicking of product would annoy me, especially when I like getting down quite close to inspect the wheel while cleaning them lol.
Could you suggest any other brushes for cleaning the spokes of an alloy? not fussed about the barrel as the wheel whoolies do that for me.
A great review, I've been thinking about getting some of these as even the smallest of my wheel woollies won't go through the gap in the spokes of my alloys, the gap is about 8mm, do you think the small EZ brush will go through?
best wheel brush i've ever used!!
Great video... I invested in my first alloy brush already. Good old chemical guys :) my next one will certainly be the EZ brush's. 👍
had mine around 3-4 years still going
New to detailing and looking for a brush so I'm sold on the larger EZ brush! But Jon I reckon a little more rock guitar in your vids wouldn't be a bad thing 🎸🤘😎
He used to be in def leopard
Top marks for the video/review jon.ive put the big EZ brush on my list to buy.im using microfiber had mit to do my wheels at the moment.its different to what I'm using on the paint of my car.all the best to you Jon.
Thanks for sharing your valued thoughts on this. Well done
Had mine about 2years jon both the small and the large i find they get in places the woolies never would be able to as long as you pull the brush out slow if you have a lot of product on where it is catching or you get covered in wheel cleaner, and they are made to bend to shape to be able to clean behind the spokes.....i'd rather take the wheel off if i am going to do that and prolong it's life, when i have a really grubby wheel it almost looks as if their is a lot of the brush missing , i rise it out in hot water and keep it on it's end stood up and it just looks like new again...would i replace it with the same brush if it broke...too right I would..cheers for the review.
Brilliant brush review Jon, how would you compare it to say, the Chemical Guys wheel brush ?
I'm currently using a set of wheel woolies which I love.
hey graham ive not used the chemical guys easy reach one.. it looks similar to the EZ like the speed master one but you never know really to you get to play with them.. I love the wheel woolies when I can fit them in to use them but thats literally a 50/50 thing for me and very rarely the big wooly brush..
What a great review, off to buy mine now. Thank you.
I had a couple of the red versions that i gave away to someone at work and got carbon collectives wheel woolies which are just shedding wool now at 7 months in, wish i never gave them away
Love your style and your channel. Just been reading about lots of issues with 'diamond cut alloys where guys are suffering the dreaded corrosion under the lacquer problem. That is why I would never touch that style of wheel and prefer the all over paint job. Diamond cutting leaves a hard edge where the lacquer goes from alloy to paint and this never works. You must see loads of these so what are your experiences and have you found a good fix?
yes once you cut them its really hard to smooth the edges down. apparently you need to spend a lot of time doing this or else the laquer does not seal the exposed metal and it oxidizes.. happened to me. I also would try and avoid diamond cuts.
was looking for reviews of these brushes and I wondered if forensics has done a video... always see these brushes in people's videos and have found alternative brushes a disappointment. now ordering a large brush with some other gear from in2detailing can't wait!:)
quick question could I apply something like bead maker (not to be confused with BREAD-maker!) straight onto freshly applied TAC Moonlight to act as a sacrificial layer in case it rains? cheers
Can you review a pre wax cleanser that you think is the best? Currently I'am using p22 cleanser.
I have an auto rae chem barrel brush which seems to be exactly the same as the big ez brush
OK, so in short: it cleans well but scratches the hell out of the wheels. Better avoid it if you like your wheels to look like new. Right?
no it does scratch the hell out of wheels. Its too soft for that. It can scratch clearcoat though but generally the clearcoat used on alloys is harder. I would not use them on VERY VERY high value alloys with black gloss finish or even satin perhaps. But Ive been using them on "normal" cars like my BMW's for years no problems. remember an alloy wheel barrels spends its life having abrasive brake dust fired into it so it can handle a brush wipe down.
I agree that the hell out of them wasn't the best way to put it. I exaggerated a bit. But they can, and probably will, scratch the clearcoat. My wheels are glossy black, and when I touched this brush my first thought was "oh, my God, this feels like sandpaper, it's going to ruin my wheels". So I started looking for reviews (which is how I found your video), and they seem to confirm my concern. Which is a pity, because it really looks like a good quality brush. I will use it on my wife's silver wheels, but I guess I'd better keep it away from my black ones.
Hi I'm really new to all this detailing stuff I'm learning a lot and just recently sub crib to your Chanel and slowly going through your videos.
I was wondering if these ez brushes are good for diamond cut wheels or are the wheel Woolies are better or any recommendations many thanks in advance.
Your videos are brill I've learnt a lot so far.
As always, perfect job. Thank you very much.
I want to get just the 'EZ Detail GO Brush' to clean the barrel of my Rims (the way you showed with the EZ Wheel Brush LARGE) as i have the audi 18" 10 Spoke rims, so no tight spaces. I know the large brush would be better, but do you recon this would work too?
Side note: I'm planning to sculpt a handle out of wood then drill a hole in it, glue the EZ GO brush into it to increase the length of the handle.
if a big bog brush will fit in then this one will but its a lot bigger. you could use it. if you main you allows well and regulary perhaps consider like wheel woolies or the incredibrush or check out the new review of the wooly wormit. lots of guys at home go for the EZ its a great brush. the one caviat is nylon strands are nylon strands they will haze up clearcoat over time. so as a trade tool on manky alloys it doesnt matter but you dont need to perhaps use agressive brushes week in week out. at least i dont.
@@ForensicDetailing Thank you for the Reply :) When it comes to cleaning the barrel it does need a rough clean, as the break dust builds up very quick and is very hard to get off! Plus the minimum time between cleans is 2 weeks (life's too busy lol)
I'm not too worried about hazing the alloys as they have a matte titanium finish so no clear coat to really damage.
I really liked the EZ GO brush had a stiff handle/shaft compared to barrel brushes that have a little bendiness to the handle/shaft.
But my concern is in 2 parts:
Are the Bristles on the EZ GO as stiff/dense as those on the EZ Large brush? (Cause i don't want the bristles to go flat over time)
The bristles cover a longer area of the shaft on the EZ Large brush, but is this really going to matter, just might need some more elbow grease when using the EZ GO brush?
These are the wheels i've got.
www.audi-sport.net/xf/threads/matt-10-spoke-alloy-wheels.229250/
@@4321nugget same bristles on the go m8. I hear the daytona speed master is like the stiffer bristled version of the EZ.
What would you recommend for black gloss alloys that have also been ceramic coated? Cheers
microfiber madness incredibrush flat mate
I use the Meguiar's work very well but I want to change because when you use it it's splash you (sorry for my english I'm french)
Hey Jon, I'm sure you have had these recommendations before. But do you have plans to review any of Auto Finesse, Angelwax, or Gtechniq product lines? I am particularly interested in Angelwax Blu Rinse and Auto Finesse Avalanche as well as the rest of their product lines.
we've done an angelwax full brand review gregory.. No plans for any AF stuff at the moment but its a strong well run brand so who knows in future... Gtechniq is a brand I would like to explore more with have featured their wheel armour and its very very good...
Wow, I don't know how I missed that. Watching now.
Sad to hear about no Auto Finesse Plans. I live in the US and got a liter of Avalanche on Ebay, and am really enjoying it but want to know if its worth it for their other products. Looking forward to Gtechniq.
caressing those bristles on the bushes....sorry brushes, there Jon! I use the Gyeon brushes (very similar to the incredidoodahs), their great, but don't get in everywhere. Been thinking about getting these, thanks Jon - more moth's flying out the old wallet!
Love your videos
What do you clean the face of the wheel with?
The plastic nipple wore out after two years of use so went on EBay and ordered a new end cap
Paul Dolden Details the same has happened to my larger brush. Do you have a link to the item you purchased off EBay? Thanks.
1swardy not off hand put in end caps they are the heat shrink ones make sure you measure the end of the brush first
Nice work Jon, tell it how it is! Based on your review I Will be buying these!
Ive been using the brush for what a month now.. still really like it.. one thing you need to be careful of is no over flexing it. the steel core runs all the way into the handle and its at this point where it will pivot.. so nice light hands and dont bend the brush to avoid prematurly snapping the shaft.. ouch...
Do these brushes "bend" at all so I can get behind spokes etc or are they just solid? Thank you.
both the thin ones bend they are mild steel cores.. mild steel does not like being bent though and if you keep bending them you risk snapping it.. but you also risk bending it at the point where it goes into the handle and once you weaken it there, thats where they tend to break.. its the biggest downside of these brushes.. mind are still going strong 2 years after filming this because I dont bend them.
@@ForensicDetailing Great - thanks for the info. I'll leave mine straight in that case - don't want to end up busting them.
Thanks again!
Matthew
Eeee Zee eee zee hehe, ordered, ta, went for the large and the wheel arch jobbie
Awesome 👍 review! Thanks!
Where is there an actual decent detail shop in the UK? I mean, one I can actually walk into and see the items etc....like a sweet shop! lolI'd travel and fill my boot.
once again a very usefull review. thumbs up
Gone one the other day complemented by a drill brush, my alloys are 90% need a good clay can anyone suggest how to get rid of old wheels weights ?thanks
use a non marring tool, they are like plastic chisels you push them under the weight and prize them up with the tool dont use screwdriver. After this you can use a rubber weel (adhesive remover wheel on a drill bit) and wipe wipe over with microfiber and tar and glue remover.
Creates too much splatter…the long wheel brush is not dense enough and the bristles are stiff and not being dense makes gives the bristles more space to create heaps of splatter
man up :) get in there (joke). but yer they do fling dirt. but Im still using the same ones years after this video was made and they are the only ones that reliably get into any barrel.
I just ordered them
Disappointed with mine. After 12 months my handle has snapped off. Prob only used about 12-16 times.
yer thats the weakness isnt it. mild steel coat hanger like core.. but such a great brush dave. mine is still going and I have had it 2-3 years and used it 50-100 times? but once it starts bending on the handle its going to keep bending there.. trick is to use in and out with light pressure so it never bends.. I would like to see a different material used in the core so it cant break though.
@@ForensicDetailing Great tip there, thanks. Great customer service from ez, new brush going to be sent to me! Def a great brush for bmw wheels!
I found this brush isn’t as good as the similar Vikan version, and also much cheaper.!
Nice one
You need to go all American when you pronounce the name, it's E-Zeee Brush. See how it sounds so much better.
yer Im not sure why called them EEEE ZED I noticed that when I was doing the edit as well..
Crack On and Thanks!
