That's the baby, and that amount will last you the rest of your life.  The tiniest smear does the job and stays in the connector for probably about six months.  I've bought a 500g tub (link below) but that's for all our franchisees combined.  And it's still far too much.

Same here. I don't like the 90 degree socket. The angle brush adapter is much better. Alex doesn't bring out a Quick-loQ for the angle adapter, so I would go with the Exceed option if I needed to change brushes regularly.

Sorry H-Man, I'm confused as I thought you where the Quick-loQ originator and made your own.

Yes that is correct but saying the one's I received from Alex which are the ones you have over your way.
Have no problems with the actual QL it self.
You also said something about Alex bring out a QL for a angle adapter is this what you mean??

I use them with long neck swivels, a bit of WD40 keeps it all working correctly.
However, I also MUCH prefer 45 degree sockets- makes everything work much better. I have hinted that Alex may wish to bring out a 45 degree QL socket but still await a response. ;D

No. Instead of a 90 degree QL I would like to try an angled QL

Still now I have the univalve head changes will be extremely fast - better than quick loc

The above wouldn't work as a QL, a spring loaded ball bearing wouldn't be enough to stop the brush spinning in the
socket at the slightest bit of resistance.

Here is a video we did using this type of swivel.
Is this what you want it to do?

ive used the quik locs since they came out.miles better than the screw thread type angle adaptors as sometimes i couldnt get the brush square on or they d move when scrubbing.

i did have a few problems with them jamming but alex seems to have fixed that now.the newer quik locs are a breeze to change brushes.
price higher/work harder!

That's for the swivel. It gets the point of swivel as close to the brush head/glass as possible. Works extremely well.

Cheers for that Vin.

Just ordered it above from your link.

Just to reiterate; use the tiniest of smears.  If you put too much of it anywhere and it's visible (say on the neck of the pole) wipe it off as it'll never wear off on its own and you don't want it to have even the slightest chance of it ending up on your brush bristles.

So are you talking about the 90%  to the brush on this ?
And change it so it has a slight angle down wards??
This way you would have better smoother side  movement.
