Lance99 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 It looks like a new tire scrub brush is coming out... with shorter bristles! I noticed it in a recent video, as well as being listed in the bucket wheel cleaning kit. http://adamspolishes.com/shop/specials/sub-category-1/adam-s-bucket-wheel-cleaning-kit.html Check out the video around the 3:40 mark.

It's already out. Don't think they've updated the website yet, though. But when you order a tire brush, I think you'll get the one with shorter bristles now instead.

Ls1transam Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Seen Adam using a shorter bristle brush in a cideobthey uploaded to YouTube yesterday. falcaineer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJP Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 I'm glad I saw this post because this is the brush that I use, I was considering buying the Adams brush but I guess I'll stick with what I have. IMO this is the best tire brush on the market. It works great on mud tires also. I'm pondering buying another on off Amazon just because. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falcaineer Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Seen Adam using a shorter bristle brush in a cideobthey uploaded to YouTube yesterday. Yep, that's the one. It has already been released. Similar to the red tire brush from before, just shorter bristles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gma3748 Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Couldn't you just modify your existing tire brush with some scissors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falcaineer Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Couldn't you just modify your existing tire brush with some scissors? That's what I'll be doing I guess, theoretically, you could. What I dont know is if the bristle pattern/spacing is the same on the long bristle vs. short bristle brush. They're fairly spread out on the long version, so shortening them may create unintended gaps. But if you're going to try, please post your findings and pics here!

I contacted Adam's and they said the website has not been updated and if you order a brush you will get the shorter bristles. falcaineer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falcaineer Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 You are correct. Sweet! Met my quota for the week! Not that I expected you to, but did you by chance ask if the bristle pattern is the same on the long and short versions? As I tried to explain above, the groupings of bristles might be different, potentially making cutting them not an optimal fix. Lance99 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JVannozzi Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 I just placed an order and threw in the tire brush too....hope I get new short bristles because I'm Not a big fan of the current one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SumBeach35 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 I just placed an order as well and threw in a tire brush. I'll compare them when it arrives as I planned on cutting my original one down. buffalobob920 and falcaineer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffalobob920 Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 I had the same problem with the new tire brush spoke to dan sent me out the shorter version it still wasn't performing like the old blue one l hope but I don't think there coming back I tried cutting the red one back not easy i think if you have a big sharp scissor you might have success Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chonke Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Sweet! I just ordered the new brush, hopefully I get the short bristle one. Sometimes my tires arent as dirty and maybe this one will be better in those situations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PacificNWBuckeye Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 I got one of the shorter bristle red/black tire brushes in my mystery bucket, tried it out today and while it works great I am having the bristle loss that everyone was mentioning above, not sure if this is part of a specific lot of brushes or a difference in the build for these mid-stiffness brush. Anyone find a good stop-gap for the loss, I was thinking maybe some type of glue dripped into the holes to help hold them in.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone find a good stop-gap for the loss, I was thinking maybe some type of glue dripped into the holes to help hold them in.... I'd say give it a few more uses and check for any more "hair loss" . Mine (long bristle version, but still...) stopped losing them after only the second or third use, so hopefully you'll get the same result. If not, I'm certain Adam's will take care of you.

ocdrifter Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Use gorilla glue it's the best and has expanding capabilities, so don't use a lot or you have a hot mess.

SumBeach35 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 After using my new brush the other week. The brushes have the same bristle pattern. Actually looks like they were cut down by hand. ocdrifter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
