Well I had received a Daytona Speed Master Wheel Brush (going to use Daytona Brush) from Autogeek thanks to Dwayne

I said I would do a review of the brush and post up some pictures so here is the review.

At first glance of the brush I loved it it looked just like I had hoped and a little bigger actually.... appeared to be very well made nothing sharp or pointy plenty of bristles on it etc... Very good-looking product!

I couldn't wait to try it out when I washed my vehicle (as many of you know 2007 F-150). My truck has a very severe problem with the brakes "dusting" its horrible. So I figured the brush would help me get to the places that I usually never could reach!!

So I received it and used it when I did a quick wash...no pictures... on another weekend I went riding on my quad :D sooooooo truck got a little muddy because I took that into the trails as well. Perfect! the wheels were all muddy inside and out the truck was a mess. Time to wash

I did my usual process of doing the tires, rims, wells, and running boards first....but, I had a new tool in the arsenal. I had already used this brush once before when I did a quick wash and wish I had taken pictures than (lots more brake dust that it got) oh well this does the job

I used the brush with great results its long bristles and long reach work excellent. The hand protector really works at helping your hands from getting hit too. I would recommend this brush to everyone and anyone its a very good asset to me. Could I live without it?? Well not really lol I really wasn't paying any attention to my rims "barrels" when I washed before, now I can hit them up really quick with the Daytona Brush and BAM!!! it's all clean. It gets all the brake dust off from inside the barrels and really does enhance the look of the rim! I will be using it every time I wash from now on

The only thing that I did not like about the brush was that it could have been a little more sturdier right at the handle and than get soft at the beginning of the bristles so you could still bend it....I wasn't having a problem but sometimes it would just bend no real big deal.

I heard a lot of people saying that they couldn't get really caked on brake dust off with it and neither could I but hey, we have a hard time getting caked on brake dust off on the outside of the wheel why expect a brush to do it on the inside lol.....wasn't expecting it to get off what I had in there I need to take off my wheels before the winter and get it clean.

Overall I would say put this on your holiday wish list's

Very nice Pockets, nice to see you out there detailing!
 
wheels look great!!! those are tough wheels to care for. soft finish and easy to scuff.

For brushes like that, I don't have a big gripe if they bend a little when I don't want them too, as long as that bending isn't leading to a break right at the stress spot.

I've picked up some $5 dollar brushes that are similar to the Daytona at Auto Zone, but that spot right by the handle that bends eventually breaks (think metal coat hangar). Get what you pay for!

If the Daytona Brush can stand up to constant bending (usually by accident), then I would be all over this product.
 
Can you meaure exactly how long the brush part is? and then how long it is end to end? The product description doesn't give any dimensions, and I want to compare it to the EZ Brush.

+1 this may be what I need for the fusion rims.
 
Nice brush, but I still can't figure out how its pulling a price tag of $30. Yeah, I know it works good

You asked and you shall receive. The bristle part is 9.5" and the entire brush, including the tip, is 18".

The EZ brush has a thinner wire and some were experiencing breakage. The Daytona has a heavier wire and I have not heard of any breaking as yet. I have the original EZ brush and it's still working fine. I don't bend mine very much so maybe that's why it's holding up.
 
Great review, Thank You for taking the time to do it:dblthumb2:

Nope it just bends sometimes nothing that really bothers me that much and i doubt that it will break from the bending

Nice write-up, Pockets. That is one great looking truck!

Thanks John :xyxthumbs:

Nice write up!
Man was that truck dirty!

Thanks mix!!

Thanks a lot.

Thanks, but you don't have to. cnfowler provided it above. The only thing the product description provided in the Autogeek store was that it had a 13" stem; information that was hidden in all the verbage. I liked how the EZ brush and EZ mini brush product descriptions had a picture showing the dimensions so that it could be found right away.
