Take off the plate from a superlite brush it`s far neater and easier to do,even with just that plastic that Waynes using your adding loads of weight to the brush it might not seem like it but you are.

That's the easy way to convert a Tucker but there's no swivel on it and it's totally rubbish without a swivel. Much quicker & easier with a decent swivel, try for yourself and you wouldn't go back to using a brush without one if you're competent with it

ive got a swivel that fits a standard thread but never got INTO using it, Luke

Luke has done a similar job to me only i used bolt jets,i`ve tried swivels before and never again it might come in handy once a week above a roof other than that no thanks.

[Captain Scarlet]

im not a swivel fan either, ive got acouple of them, but it makes the cleaning process feel flimsy

[NWH]

There just not needed,if you want to bugger up your wrists get a swivel.

[Captain Scarlet]

i dont understand the point in using them all the time either, they never saved me a moments time, infact they slowed me down, Luke

[Wayne Thomas]

There just not needed,if you want to bugger up your wrists get a swivel.

The swivels that are sold on 2 websites commonly used are absolute rubbish-too stiff and defeats the object of using swivels to make life easier. I am a chronic arthritic sufferer and the swivels have made life easier on my wrists , not harder. I totally disagree with your statement NWH, sorry

[NWH]

Fair enough Wayne we all do what is easier for us as individuals,what suits 1 might not suit another but i wouldn`t recommend a swivel to a newbie.

[Jeff Brimble]

You need two movements with any decent swivel the first movement should be a torquable up and down one and the second the left to right elevation as in Lukes pic. Pity nobody makes them - yet.

Tucker have made a swivel for their brushes. It swivels vertically and can be locked into a fixed position. It should be on sale about now. I won't buy it as it doesn't swivel horizontally.

The one I use doesn't need any pressure to change the angle as it's free spinning. The only thing that restricts the movement is the length of hose from angle adaptor (pole hose is a purposely tight fit) to the brush to prevent maximum movement. It has about a 20 degree vertical movement allowance when it's worn a bit (after a month of use), which makes it ideal for getting in under the top frame of sash windows for new cleans.

thought id bring this back after the conversation about the gardiners brush

[Captain Scarlet]

Thanks rwc. The Tucker is yet to be beaten in my opinion! the sl brush really is great but the Tucker is a step futher, having both is good
