That black brush you used on the wheels, is it good for getting into tight spots inside the wheel?

I was using the EZ detail brush from detailed image and its pretty good but it broke.

Thinking of replacing it with something better/stronger/longer. Let mek now what your recommend.

Great work as always.

Great job!! I love seeing these posts of yours. I only wish I could find someone as detailed oriented (pun intended) here in the Phoenix area.

Keep up the good work.

lmk,

I was refering to the power stick. That spoke brush looks interesting too.

I'm a big fan of cleaning the inside of the wheels every work, so im looking to make my life easier. Especially something to fit between the caliper and the wheels.
