I'm currently using a method similar to Jeff ( Brimble ) of having the brush point just slightly upwards ( see picture below ) Now this can make scrubbing the bottom of the window a little difficult ( without a swivel ) so thats why I am favouring the vikans as they give a bit of splay downwards too, giving all the window a really good scrub. I find that the Ionic and some others dont do this very well. Alex, will your new brush splay in a similar way. And everyone else, how do you like your brush angle? I used to like the stock flat to the glass but not anymore, I think this works better, Luke
