After a little more tweaking the brush is even better now. Might try and capture a couple of photos of it in use. It's now more like a rectangular brush with round ends rather than an entirely oval affair. It's kept a lovely soft feel, is very effective, efficient and has a considerably lighter wet weight. Corners are no longer an issue whether sash, recessed or not. It's actually quite a bit of an animal now without the weight! Works great with a swivel too.💪😁💪
I would recommend anyone who has a worn one, or one they don't use to try the same, it's a totally different beast.👍
How much have you trimmed off? I’ve got an old one I might try modifying, I agree the bristles standard are slightly too long.
I'm not sure Lee as I didn't measure them before cutting.😬
If you look back at the photos you will see it side by side with a partially worn Xtreme. This will give you some guidance.
Just be patient, I cut mine down about four times, each time testing it then re-trimming to get it just right. You can always remove but not replace just bear in mind. Also, after a trim, press the brush against a flat surface to see where you might wish to trim to your own liking. When mine is pressed against the glass the top and bottom rows of bristles are parallel to the brush stock, they don't form an oval shape like in standard trim. The brush is now more like a rectangular brush but with rounded ends- which really get into every corner and whip spiders nests out for fun!
Use good, sharp scissors and take your time. Good luck and hope you like the outcome as much as I do.👍
