The x line brushes last forever, ive still got one on my spare pole, must have had it 4 years and got it second hand to start with.

But i wouldnt use anything other than an extreme brush now, whats the point when you are just adding weight.

Is use the extreme stiff with cold water because it lasts much longer than the medium vesion.

Who cares how long they last if they are rubbish that won’t change over time will it lol they won’t get lighter with age like hair does,if it saved me having golfers elbow and someone  said you must buy a new brush every month to prevent it I’d be buying them.

Using manual reels and heavy brushes doesn’t do any damage short term many times years ago you’d go home with no problems and not just through age this can affect you at any time,gradually you start getting injuries and trust me it’s manual reeling heavy poles and brushes that contribute a lot to it.
I would say to any Newbies get a head start on all the other people that don’t listen buy this this and this and give yourself a chance of having an easier working day,big investment big rewards 💪💪💪💪

I still see WFPolers using Harris poles that you could get from B&Q lol you can give someone really good advise on a whole range of things that you know are right as you’ve made the mistakes but they still bury their heads in the sand 🤣🤣🤣.
Ears I just wasted on some people they may as well have been born with 2 dicks 2 feet apart,one at the waist and one on the forehead 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Bugger.

Sounds like I’ll stick with Gardiners and their cr#p improved fan jets  :'(

At least until there’s a similar brush without them
If you have some of the old brushes - knock the jet out.
Use a plasterboard fixing.
Cut down to 15mm long, drill out 5mm hole.
Fit jet.
5 minutes tops.
Proper HMan stuff!!

They are not rubbish, they are a brilliant brush. Last ages and great on the glass BUT i wouldnt use one anymore or anything else than an extreme due to weight.

They are ideal for staff or young lads  with plenty of energy to burn and joints still in good nick.

Nwh said himself a while back that xline brushes are the best, now he says they are rubbish  ::)roll ::)roll
I have used xline everyday for the past few years and my arms havnt fallen off yet.
I think NWH is confusing his tennis elbow for w@nkers elbow.

They are like a lot of brushes they look very good but they are too “heavy”,I’ve made the mistake many times of thinking that looks a lovely brush and when it turns up only to be greeted by another brick in a box.

As Nigel will tell you,

He only needs to clean one or two houses a day as he has refined his work over the last 40 years  and earns £557.97 P/H

so he has a lot of free time on his hands  ;D

I would say the xline brush is a better brush than the extreme in terms of scrubbing and feel on the glass. But for me i would rather have the lighter weight.
