Car Alloy Wheel and Motorbike Cleaning Brush, Blue

I am a professional detailer with my own company and have used EZ detail brushes for a number of years. There is a lot of competition out there these days but these brushes are so superior in every way I felt it deserved a review.I use these brushes every day, 5 to 6 days a week, all year round. One brush will last me 2 years. That's with heavy usage. The reason they last so long is the build quality. The bristles are firm amd stand up properly but don't have to much "flick back" when you pull the brush out of the wheel. The metal stem is very sturdy and won't start weakening for at least 20 to 24 months (with heavy usage - longer with weekend work only)The handle is ergonomic and comfortable to use for long periods of time which is perfect for people using them on a frequent basis.You get what you pay for in the detailing world and I can vouch for ANY of the EZ brushes but especially this one. If you want another brush for wheel arches, engine bays etc. you must also try the EZ Detail "Bog" brush...you'll know why it's called that when you see it.If you bought this brush on a car detailing supplies site you will save yourself about 3 quid. However, you will then have to pay P&P unless you spend around 75 quid.Now this brush is on prime, just order it. If you've come from a brush like the Halfords red wheel brush (costs about a tenner) - You're in for a real treat...this won't blind you in the first 30 seconds of use when you pull the brush out the wheel.If you do struggle with flick back.....Use snow foam on top of your wheel cleaner and then use this brush. The foam won't spray back plus it keeps the wheel cleaner on the wheel longer giving it more dwell time and a better overall cleaning experience.

This replaced an ageing Halfords Wheel Brush that only just got the job done, but bent under any form of pressure and struggled to get to the back of the wheel barrel.The EZ Detail Brush is amazing. On first use, it cleaned dirt from inside the wheels that I'd given up on getting off. Whilst paired with a good quality car shampoo, it really spread the cleaning mixture far in to the wheel and left a satisfying dark coloured water rushing off the wheel during rinsing.I'd recommend this over any cheaper alternatives as the quality of the brush compared to the price is worth paying.The brush felt soft with hot water being used and no risk to the alloys themselves. The brush is able to reach into smaller holes due to the central column being so thin. It has a small splash guard, although not something that I'm that bothered about - it is likely that you'll get a bit wet when cleaning a car.My wheels now look clean all the way through, rather than just on the surface.

The best wheel on the market

I took the plunge on this brush after having many cheap ones or even using a sponge to get between the wheels.It does look of very good quality and it seems to protect the wheels very well from any possibility of scratches.Of course you will need to be careful and rinse of as much dirt as possible before using the brush.One thing to note is that the bristles are actually a lot softer than I expected so if you have a lot of grained in dirt it may not get this off on the first few passes.With a mild cleaner though good results can be obtained.The soft bristles make it difficult to reach in the corners of wheels and spokes so I had to follow up with a smaller detailing brush.As others have said it does spray you on the way out so you will need to move to the side.I like the finger guard. The bristles do appear to return to the original shape after being twisted and bent.It feels fairly strong so I've not managed to bend it yet..

Took the plunge on spending a bit more on this brush than my usual cheap sub £10 brushes from Halfords etc. What a difference. The bristles and while construction are worlds apart from the cheaper brands and this brush, whilst thick, is super versatile and gets into tight spots and thin spokes.Ok it won’t do wire wheels so you’d need the smaller version for those, but it works fine on my 20inch Range Rover rims, per pics, and six spoke merc AMG alloys. My pics are still with the wheel cleaner applied before rinsing but the brush made light work of the grime and got all the way across the wheel drum internally... brilliant.Given you’ll be using this for years to come the price is quite reasonable.

I've bought plenty of cheap wheel brushes and cleaning devices, all of which have been useless and fell apart very quickly. After lots of research and seeing great reviews I ordered a large and small brush. So far so good, really nice quality made in USA. The bristles are very soft but seem to do the work on scrubbing grime from wheels, I've been using Sonax wheel cleaner with the brushes.Only criticism would be as the brush bristles are so soft and 'bendy' there is a lot of splatter that ends up all over your clothes / face and eyes - not great when wheel cleaning solution is applied.!All in all very pleased with my purchase - great on my BMW M4 666 wheels which a a nightmare to keep clean without these.!

Not as good as the EZ brushes, the handle is more flimsy and the bristle spray you when withdrawing from the wheel.

I used this on the alloy wheels of my car which is hand washed including the wheels, every fortnight at least. I was astonished at the amount of dirt that it pulled out from visibly clean wheels. It reached the parts that I didn’t know existed!I used Autoglym wheel mousse, which is probably their gentlest cleaner, on the wheels and then this brush to agitate it and the results were stunning.I like the way that the wire core is plastic coated to prevent scratches and the hand guard which prevents bashed knuckles.Some reviews criticise the brush unfairly. If you want to remove mud etc. use a jet wash first or if marks are not coming off then you need to use a more aggressive cleaner.
