Hi fellow AG members!!
I want to share a good brush that I just purchase from Amazon recently. B)B)
Here it is!! One is boar hair brush (Brown), the other one is pig hair brush (Black)
They came in 3 different sizes and costs me about $20 each set, not bad for 3 brushes imo.
The biggest brush is very huge!! My plan is to use it for seats and interior cleaning, the medium sized ones can be used for exterior and emblems detailing, while the smaller ones will be used for cleaning vents B) Here`s the size comparison to a Salt bottle that some restaurant may uses.
So, let`s start to do lint test on these brushes.
Firsts off, the black brush, looks very nice and very thick, very soft as well, softer than the brown one in my oppinion.
Method of testing is brushing on a piece of clean paper.
Here`s the result!! After about a minute of brushing, here`s the amount of lint, it stopped after the first 10 seconds. Not bad at all! I`m liking the black one so much.
The next one is to test the brown brush with the same test method as well.
Here`s the result, this one lints more
than the black ones since it is more brittle, might be actually better at cleaning I guess.
Alright, next test is the most important one, scratch test with a test method of using the brush against the back of a CD. I got 2 brand new CDs that will be used as the "Victim" :dance1
The black brush is now up for the test
Here`s the result, I didn`t see any scratch other than a very very fine scratches because I got curious and tried to stroke it harder than what you`d actually do when detailing emblems. I`m liking the black ones so far!! ^_^
It`s the brown brush turn now. Let`s see! This one is more brittle, so I expect a few scratches when used on a very soft surface like this.
Here`s the result, as expected, it started to scratch as soon as I laid down the third or fourth stroke.
Part 1 Review conclusion:
I found that the pig hair brush (Black) is softer, thicker, and more likable to my skin. It is slightly less brittle than the boar hair brush (Brown), which I believe is made for another purpose. I can see the black brush being used for an exterior job and on emblems or any non-scratch resistant surface (Wood Panels). I found that the boar hair brush (Brown) is more brittle and I believe that it will have more agitation power when being used on cleaning leather seats or scratch resistant surfaces (Soft-touch dashboard). All in all, if I were to buy only 1 set of these brushes, I would buy the pig hair brushes again. I feel that it is more versatile and softer, my skin doesn`t feel irritated at all.
Part 2 will be available in 2 days, feature a C63 AMG
Tomorrow will be these brushes vs the C63 AMG!!
Here`s the picture of the car. More will be available on another thread.
This is my very first in-depth review thread. Hopefully this helps and please forgive me for any mistakes or wrongs that I`ve made on this in-depth review -_-
