Reach & Rinse

What needs a little reach?

Start with the object you use. Then compare the brush itself: its head, fibre and reach.

The coffee-pot spout

Slender wool-tipped and stiff-bristle brushes for narrow interiors.

The bottle you refill

Long-handled brushes, narrow shapes and tail ends for bottles and jars.

The other small jobs

Three things to compare.

The right brush depends on more than its overall length.

The opening and the inside

Compare the brush-head diameter and shape with the vessel opening and the space inside. Do not force a brush into a narrow opening.

The working head and the reach

Overall length includes the handle or wire stem. Brush-head length describes the bristled section. Both are listed separately where available.

The fibre and the job

The collection includes stiff tampico, softer horsehair, fine goat hair, bristle and nylon. Check each product’s description rather than assuming that similar shapes have the same feel.
