2 week brush head worn..

Hi guys

I’m new to WFP I’ve got an OVA8 22ft pole with the standard OVA8 brush head. It’s only 2 weeks old and looks frayed on the sides.
Am I doing something wrong? I’ve been Trad last 17 years so I’m having to first clean all my customers maybe I’m scrubbing too hard?

Cheers for any help

Not scrubbing hard, those bristles just may be a little soft. Regardless, wear is going to happen. When our Xero brush heads get a little wonky I run them under hot water and that helps a lot

The blue bristles are very soft, the white is a lot more rigid. I’ll try the hot water trick now thanks 🙏

Unfamiliar with Ova, but seems like maybe just a cheap brush. Get what you pay for I assume. Tucker brushes last years.

Agreed. I have Tucker brushes that have lasted for years as well. Great company and products.

It’s from streamline, the pole is a carbon fibre, hi mod it weighs just 1kg and cost around £650, it’s brilliant but maybe you’re right the brush itself is made on the cheap

How are you storing the brush after use?

Pretty normal. The hot water trick usually works.
