Wheel Brush suggestions
Anyone found a decent brush for cleaning Roc's wheels , I have a Halfords special shaped a bit like a food whisk , but after 4 uses the brushes have flattened out completely such that cleaning becomes very ineffective

Re: Wheel Brush suggestions
After a few, my local supplier at Shinearama stuffed one of these in my hand a while back and told me to try it, wheel EZ Detail Brush.
Seems to do the job, the spine can be bent to kink the end to clean the inner rim from the outside face of the wheel with ease and goes through the narrow gap between the wheel & brake caliper. Is long enough to reach the inside edge of the rims with ease.

Re: Wheel Brush suggestions
mine is the same design but from ebay for about 3,00 pounds.
the trouble is the spine is too soft, so the brush bends while cleaning.
