Jeff, on real high gutter lines (35'+) we X-Jet on a butyl cleaner or Bob's F-13. I buy the same 10" truck brushes. Have you seen that contoured brush Sunbrite has?

F-13 seems to work well for us but it has what I call a dwell time window. Maybe 1 minute to 2 minutes, don't hold me to that time. Before or after it doesn't work well unless you reapply. We use truck stack brushes.

Thats the brush that I use. I have a hard time keeping it attached to the pole though. It unscews itself sometimes.

I use a seperate solution in a bucket of water. I go around and apply with the brush, let dwell, re-apply if neccessary, then rinse with a water hose.

This is an additional step done after the original housewash/roof clean etc. that is upcharged.

Ive tried Jims method but it doesnt work for me. This method has worked the best so far.

Fold up a piece of cardboard and insert it into the hole on the brush then thread the pole onto it and tighten till you cant anymore and it should fix the problem

I use a truck brush or a white scrub pad wrapped around a sponge and stick it in a unger fixi clamp.

Wrap a strip or two of electrical tape around the pole threads before you screw it onto the brush. Ours hold fine that way. Same style brush from Menards.
