Cleaning the Triple Duty Brush

[mattwelcer]

Hi All,

This is my first post so go easy on me. I tried using the search function to find info on how to clean the new Triple Duty Brush but could not find anything that related directly to cleaning the actual brush.
I have just detailed all three cars (interior) we have in the family using the detail brush but it is now covered in a black residue. I guess its this is residue from previous products used on the interior.

So to get to the point what is the safest and best way to clean the brush. I have only recently purchased it and already find it a new and invaluable tool when cleaning the cars interior. However i don't want to risk damage to the bristles when cleaning it. I have tried rinsing it in just water but this hasn't removed the black residue on the bristles. Does any one have any tips, many thanks!

PS
I live in Germany so what ever brand labels are available in the US will more than likely not be available here. So if you could remember to include whats in the actual product you recommend would be greatly appreciated!

I suspect you can get Woolite there. I'd dilute Woolite 1:6 with water and soak and agitate the brush in this solution.

Hi

Thanks for the response but what exactly is 'Woolite" i have never heard of it so i do not know what i am looking for if i was to purchase an equivalent here in Germany.

Thanks in advance for the explanation!

Well after having a look tonight in the shops i was unable to locate this product called 'Woolite'.
Can any body make a suggestion to what alternative product i should be looking for? Can i just get some alternative product or something more specific, once again many thanks in advance!

Hi Matt,

Welcome to Meguiar's Online!

Try using some warm/hot water and some dish soap or even some laundry detergent.
