Full Description

Better Detailing Plastic Handle Boar Hair Detailing Brush is a practical interior and exterior detailing brush designed for controlled cleaning around vents, switches, buttons, badges, grilles, trims, wheel nuts, engine bay plastics and tight detailing areas.

The natural boar hair bristles help lift dust, cleaner residue and light grime from awkward spaces, while the chemical-resistant plastic handle is more suited to regular use with APCs, interior cleaners, snow foam, wheel cleaners and exterior detailing products than a traditional wooden handle.

Perfect for professional valeting, mobile detailing and home car care kits, this brush gives you the control needed to clean intricate areas safely and efficiently.

Expert Notes

This plastic handled boar hair detailing brush is a practical choice for regular detailing jobs where controlled agitation is needed around vents, switches, badges, grilles, trims, wheel nuts and engine bay plastics. The natural boar hair bristles help lift dust, cleaner residue and light grime from awkward areas, while the plastic handle is more resistant to regular chemical exposure than a traditional wooden handle. This makes it well suited to use with APCs, interior cleaners, snow foam, wheel cleaners and exterior detailing products when cleaned properly after use. It should still be used with sensible pressure and good detailing discipline. Avoid using this brush on paintwork, gloss black trim, piano black plastics, touchscreens, clear plastics, soft leather, delicate PPF and easily marked finishes. Keep separate brushes for interiors, wheels and engine bays to avoid transferring brake dust, grit or grease between areas.
