So that cleaning the machine does not harm its elements, the brush is selected according to specific functional characteristics.
Autobrushes for different surfaces
Structurally, the autobrush is a base made of durable plastic with a pile fixed on it or a bristle planted on the handle. Depending on the purpose, the length, stiffness and shape of the cleaning material may vary.
For delicate washing of glasses, an accessory with a working surface made of a foam rubber sponge, equipped with a silicone water dispenser on one edge, is suitable.
Car body cleaning is carried out using brushes with thick synthetic bristles, slightly fluffy at the ends, which prevent damage to the paintwork.
The ergonomics of the base and handle are designed to provide the greatest comfort of use without damaging the surfaces to be cleaned.

With water supply
Washing the exterior parts of the car body begins with wetting the surfaces to be cleaned with clean water, and only after that is it allowed to apply chemical detergents.
Devices with water supply not only save time and effort on car washing, but also cope with even heavy pollution. The Stels range includes 2 inventory options with the ability to connect to a water hose.

Customer opinions about brushes
On different review sites, you can find diametrically opposed opinions about Stels auto brushes.
Along with positive reviews, noting the softness of the bristles, the consistency of price and quality, the convenience of the design, there are also responses from customers who have encountered shortcomings in use.
The weak point of the telescopic design is the plastic fastening of the working surface to the aluminum handle, the fragility of the structure, and the absence of a swivel head.
Despite the manufacturer's desire to meet European quality standards, it is obvious that some products need to be improved.
