Wash Brushes

Deliver a thorough clean that takes care of dirt and grime, while being gentle enough not to damage glass, paint, and chrome. You want your detailing process to start with a good base. Use these auto brushes to perform a hand wash on the vehicles you’re detailing, before using our detail towels to dry them for a bright sheen!

Scrubber Brushes

Call them fender well brushes, wheel well brushes, inner fender brushes, or even mat brushes – these auto detailing brushes go by many names but are a big part of a detailing brushes arsenal. These brushes feature medium-stiff bristles, and have a larger brush head to attack a greater surface area all at once, saving you time. Their long, ergonomic handles make it easy to reach deep into the wheel wells and get the leverage you need to deal with caked-on mud, salt and more in these hard-to-reach spots.

Wheel and Tire Brushes

One of the most important auto detail brushes to have at your disposal, wheel and tire brushes help to add a finishing touch to the exterior of the vehicle. Wheels and tires are exposed to the worst, most damaging contaminants on the roads, and get covered in dirt, brake dust, tar, and more. Tire cleaning brushes feature a large head of stiff bristles, to get into some of the grooves and work inside of the molded rubber that is part of the tire. They sometimes feature curved heads to conform to the shape of the tire. Wheel brushes, also referred to as spoke brushes, are longer and round, with a short handle and stiff bristles. This helps them work in and out of the spokes and cut-outs found on most wheels.

Detail Brushes

Usually made from nylon, these detailing brushes for cars are slender bristle brushes built to deal with smaller tasks, or on small area like door arm rests. They are soft yet tough – they need to be non-scratch to clean trim and emblems and keep them looking great, yet stiff enough to remove dirt. These often have short, easy-grip handles for great control. Many of these auto detail brushes will resemble a toothbrush, or at least have a head that is similarly shaped.

Dust and Delicate-Surface Brushes

Getting into the nooks and crevices inside the vehicle is the key to a thorough clean. Even if the client can’t see it, you need to clean it! There are also surfaces that need a gentle touch – touchscreen surfaces, controls and buttons, and more. A car interior detail brush used for this sort of cleaning will often look like a paintbrush, and they are perfect for getting into air vents, seat pleats, cracks, and crevices.

Pet Hair Removal Brush

It’s very specific – but very necessary. Pet hairs will intertwine with carpet and upholstery in a vehicle, and may be difficult to remove even with a vacuum! However, these auto detail brushes help to create a small charge that attracts these hairs, pulling them out through magnetizing them.

Upholstery Brush

Interior upholstery deals with everything from spills, to tracking in chemicals and mud, and so much more. These serious messes require a serious car interior detail brush to take care of them. Whether the upholstery is cloth, leather, or suede, upholstery cleaning is one of the most important parts of a picture-perfect detail job. Having the right upholstery and carpet detail brush will make the job easier. These brushes feature short, stiff, and dense bristles that can dig into the upholstery and carpet to break loose dirt and debris, and also work cleaning chemicals into the material where the stain particulates are.

Detailing brushes for upholstery and carpet need to be ergonomic. These are handheld brushes that require pressure to dig into the upholstery and work the fabric and stain, pressure that is generated by the user. Good ergonomics will help you provide a better clean, and be comfortable working with the brush over longer periods – stains won’t stand a chance!

Give your clients the best result, and keep them coming back to you for future detailing jobs. Check out the great variety or auto detailing brushes we carry, from the leading brands in the car detailing brush space!
