Maybe if I produduced one exactly the same & had it for sale then that would be copyright infringment!

He won't sell the spare parts to me he will only fix if it goes wrong (which is good of him) but I would like theses parts for back up purposes only!!!!!!!!

I will sell the parts to you.  If it was you that was enquiring yesterday about buying spare parts, I was only trying to get across to you that you didn't have to as I would replace any parts that needed replaced free of charge.  I said if you phone before 4:30 you would have them next day.

You are right in a way I don't want to sell you spare parts, you have already bought the Autobrush and you shouldn't have to buy spare parts for it.

I don't think peter fogwills has the copyright on a flow control valve.
 Clear Vision i had a autobrush worked well for a while but the valve you have pictured packed up and the bristles on the brush ended up parted in the middle from brushing cills clean, also the autobrush would get caught and turn off sometimes when in use.
the autobrush is a good idea but if you can get a flow control valve ( i was lucky a friend gave me one) make your own auto brush as you will design it better for you own work. also if you make your own you can have spares and fix yourself.

Hi phill.

Just got my auto brush the other day and am quite impressed with it.

The only thing I dont like about it is the bristles. I prefer the vikan brushes. You can scrub harder with them!!!

Try a Gas valve from a plumbers merchants or B & Q

you can just change the gubbling over to a Vikan brush

I am sure i read Peter F will fit to a Vikan, so it must be a simple case of changing them over
