DI Brushes EZ Detail Brush Reviews
Professional Detailer Reviews
The Mini version of the brush measures 13" long by 2.5" wide in comparison to 18" long by 4.5" on the full sized model. It has soft nylon bristles that are tough enough to cut through grime, yet soft enough that they are safe to use in all areas of the car. The brush also features a nice knuckle guard just above the handle to protect your hands while cleaning tight areas, and a bonded vinyl tip to protect it from scratching.
I find myself using the Mini EZ Detail brush on every single detail that I perform, whether it is on the wheels, in the engine compartment, between exhaust tips, in door jambs, and more. It's truly a versatile product that every auto enthusiast should have in their arsenal of detailing tools and supplies!

The brushes are amazing! Their good at cleaning and easy to grip
Bought these brushes because they had quite a lot of positive comments. I read all the cons about the brush so I bullet proofed it. I removed the rubber tip and epoxied it back on then removed the rubber grip and slid flexible 10 inch round piece vinyl, it was from a place mat, secured it with tie wraps then epoxied the handle back on. No more getting back splatter and handle and tip have not come off. I notice if you use the brush with some kindness and not like your digging a hole it works great. I let my cleaning product do the work.
My go to brush for the last few years, Gets in the hard to reach places, not overly aggressive and holds up well. I mainly us this brush on clean ceramic coated vehicles. Quick and efficient.
Brush is ok the tip has a rubber cap but mine fell off and now a metal tip is exposed could potentially scratch wheels, feels a bit flimsy like the handle is coming loose. No warranty.

Would not recommend this product or the mini version. Had the handle come loose on both. On the large version, you can sort of super glue it back on, but the mini there's nothing you can do
Works very will with my corvette wheels. Wish i would have bought the larger version to reach deeper into the wheel barrel. The bristles are soft but firm enough to remove stubborn spots.
I love these wheel brushes. They work amazing and cut down on the time needed to get the barrels of your wheels clean.
Great for cleaning wheels however I wish it didn't bend so easily.
Love this brush!!
I've been buying the cheap one off Amazon and they're done for, very high quality spoke brush

Works well. I got the small version. It's perfect for my wheels. I'd buy again
I love this for my wheels. Gets into the barrel on every wheel I own. It has a small tip and the bristles bend easily so it should work well on all wheels. I will buy another when I wear this one out.
I originally bought a cheaper version from Amazon and while it worked for a few weeks it wore out quick. As soon as the EZ detail brush arrived I could already tell it was of higher quality and it's worked well for me for about a month now with little signs of wear and tear. I like the no memory bristles!
As I write this review I have just added this brush to my cart. Been using this brush for over 4 years down. Only bad thing I can say about this brush, is that is wears out after months/years of usage.
This tool is very versatile. Can be used on wheels/engine bay and even door jams. Fits well in right spaces. Awesome product. Great for professionals and/or weekend warriors

WHY DIDNT I BUY THIS BRUSH EARLIER? This brush is amazing for cleaning your wheels and deep inside the wheels. Its also much cheaper than any of these type of wheel brushes. Seems very durable. Only con is that the soap/water splashes out a bit when taking it out of the wheel. Otherwise this is a must have
Great for cleaning wheel barrel, good product!
I finally bought one of these brushes. As to be expected, it is super easy to use, and really makes the barrels of the wheels noticeably cleaner. I should have bought one sooner.
This brush is the best tool I have bought so far! It gets in all the spots and is safe on my wheels finishes.
My first brushes I have bought like this. Small and large version and they work great. My only complaint is the handle is slippery so I have to hold it with a towel which is fine and for the price you can't beat these.
First detail brush I bought for wheel cleaning. Definitely does a good job scrubbing it. Might eventually upgrade to the Speed master. I would recommend to start with this one because it's more affordable.

Simply one of the best brushes on the market. Truly a versatile tool. After getting the mini the full size one is on my wishlist!!!!
Really like this for cleaning between the spokes on my wheels. Does a good job and a great price point.
Tried similar wheel brushes from different brands and hated all of them. This EZ Brush is sturdy. The only reason I'm on my 4th brush is because the rubber tip goes missing on a job and the metal wire is exposed... which could lead to scratching or gauging.
I like this brush. Only complaint is that it is too short :) But I knew that when I bought it. Works well and it cleans nicely.
Went through 2 maxshine versions of this and both broke in a short time at the handles. This is much more sturdy and you can feel the upgrade in quality with even the first use. Highly recommend this brush!
Great add on for cleaning in very tight spokes or around very large brake calipers that you see in performance cars. I have this littler guy to get around my RS3's front calipers and it does a great job of cleaning in such a tight area that my wheel cleaning mitt and full size detailer brush can't get too. Only con to this brush is you can have a rather hard time getting deep behind the spokes to the end of the wheel to have your wheels fully clean behind the spokes, that is were the full size version of this brush comes in handy.
Great detailing brush to get deeper into your wheels. This is not a tool I use solely for cleaning my wheels, but it is something I use to take my wheel cleaning a step further. You should pair this brush with a dedicate wash mitt used only for your wheels. The brushes biggest attribute for this brush is the ability to clean behind the spokes and around brake calipers. Overall a great product that will make your wheels look better when you use with a wash mitt as well.
Excellent brush, makes it a breeze to clean the wheel barrel area behind big brake calipers. Flexible, soft, yet has enough power to effectively agitate wheel cleaner solution to get the job done. Will acquire the larger version to complement my wheel woolie.
I have used different wheel Brushes and righ know this is my favorite one, great size, soft bristles, the material of the grip helps a little if it gets some soap to not be slippery. You get what you pay for and with the deals DI give weekly you can get one for a very cheap price. Next is the smaller one for tigh spaces between wheels and calipers.
Brush is a must have in every car care bucket. Works fantastic!!!
Poor cleaning ability for custom rims.

I have used this brush a total of 20 times at the absolute most, and the metal by the handle is already beginning to loose it's ability to maintain it's shape. I have never bent it to a different shape either. It's like a paperclip that you bend too much right before it breaks. When I try to clean a wheel, it becomes annoyingly out of the shape very quickly and makes it difficult to clean effectively. I would never buy this again.
Love this brush! Great for engine bays and door jambs!
Been using these Brushes for Years!!!! Perfect size, Great for cleaning Small and Big spaces between wheels.
Awesome brush! I love the protective tip and soft bristles. I wish it also had hard bristles to scrub at tar or caked on brake dust areas. Overall, very happy! Wish I wouldv'e bought one sooner.
This is an amazing wheel barrel detailing brush. It gets in between the caliper and the inside of the rim as well as the metal backing plate installed on some vehicles. I feel like this is the size to get over the larger version of this brush.
I couldn't believe how much easier it was to clean between the spokes and deep in the barrel of the wheel with these. I agree with other posters that they spray back at you when you pull them out of the barrel but that can be mitigated. This one and its little brother were both great for me.
Does a nice job getting in and around the wheel to allow the cleaning solution to get into the dirt. The bristles are flexible yet resilient and return to their proper shape after use. Quality brush.
Works great and eazy to use!
This brush is similar to many brushes used for cleaning, however the difference that makes it all worth the purchase is the handle, it is nice sized and fits in your hand very well versus some other brushes that have very small diameter handles. Plus made in the USA!
Both brushes are great additions to any detailers arsenal. I have the EZ GO detail brush as well and between the three I can clean anything a customer could ever ask for. I absolutely love my EZ detail brushes.
Everthing has a time and place, if you have the larger size this is also good to have. I also use wheel woolies between the two you should have everything covered.
An excellent quality brush that you can get creative with. This can definitely be used in areas other than wheels.
A great flexible brush that gets to areas that need to be cleaned.
Solid brush. Bristles do bent from using it but appears to go back to normal within a few hours. Would purchase again.
Pros: Seems to agitate the product I use pretty well and can get the whole inside of the wheel.
Cons: The bristles fling the chemical all over me when I pull the brush out of the wheel.

Awesome brush! Works well cleaning the inside of the wheels.
Bristles are so soft they don't do a good job of cleaning residue off wheels. Would buy Wheel Woolies again instead.
I bought this brush because the larger brush has worked so well for me but it had its limits when the wheels have smaller smaller openings. This brush is more maneuverable in those tighter areas.
Great brush. You may need the small version to clean behind big calipers.
Product is as described and quality is as expected. Would purchase again and may be doing so before need arises. Provides ability to reach areas within the wheels to remove dirt and dust.
I bought this brush a few months ago in the dead of Minnesota winter and it finally warmed up enough outside to give me an opportunity to try it out. I paired this brush with Meguiars D143 on a set of factory clear-coated alloy wheels (Infiniti G37xS). I was very impressed with the maneuverability and effectiveness of this brush. Reaching the backs of the wheel barrels was definitely not an issue. I would highly recommend buying this brush to anyone that is on the fence about making the purchase.
Absolutely, worth every penny, top notch quality and delivery was fast considering that I'm in Puerto Rico. Will do business again without a shadow of a doubt.
Have been looking for a wheel brush that actually gets to all parts of the wheel. This really works well. I have the large and small one and like them both.
I bought this to clean my wheels, but should've bought the next size up. I'll probably order one the next time I need supplies. When you order this size, be aware that despite the somewhat beefy appearance, the shaft is just a pair of twisted thin rods covered by plastic tube. It bent within a few seconds, but I realized I was probably using too much pressure, so I re-bent it and backed off on the pressure and it worked fine.
Works as advertised. Cleans deep barrels while saving your knuckles. No signs of scratching after using one for over a year now. A bit pricey.

Can easily scrub your wheel barrels with this without removing them from your vehicle. Bristles are firm enough to do the job but soft enough not to scratch your wheels.
This brush is superb. It keeps my wheels looking new! I love it.
This is one of my main tools for cleaning my wheels. It works well on my VMR710s, but if you have large brakes or tight spaces, this size might be a little too big. My only complaint is that the water flings back at me when I pull the brush back out or when I'm rinsing it down with the hose. Otherwise, it works very well as predicted. The bristles are firm, but don't appear to scratch the wheels.
This is a must have in your arsenal. This brush reaches well in all the small places. It cleans so well. I love it. Thanks DI for the super fast shipping.
Best brush I've used for cleaning wheels. It has long bristles to reach everything and can squeeze into small areas.
I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Very impressed with this brush and the quality of its construction. The bristles are very soft so they won't scratch your wheels. I maintain my wheels on a monthly basis and this brush works great. Gets around calipers with ease.
Very good wheel cleaning brush, highly recommended.
Where has the brush been all my life!!!! Fantastic for cleaning the newer wheels where the back and brake caliper are visible. It even fits between the caliper and the wheel. Very well made, quality product. A resounding YES I would buy this item again. (Although it's so well made I probably won't have to for a long time!)
A must have in your wheel brush arsenal!
Great Brush!!! I have used it or over a year now and still going strong. I was gonna go with the bigger version but thought I'd try this one out first. This brush is the only one you'll need for any size wheels big or small. One added feature I like about this brush is the brace that keeps the brush from over flexing, unlike other brushes that will break after a few months.
This is a great brush. The bristles are stiff enough to clean the tough spots yet soft enough not to scratch or damage the finish. The length of the brush cleans the whole wheel front to back and behind the spokes easily. I highly recommend this brush.

I have used this brush four times and have been very impressed with how easily it cleans my wheels. I searched a long time for a brush like this. I hope it will stand the test of time.
I love this brush, it works great! Had the smaller one for a few years which is also a must have. It was much larger than I expected. Does a great job of cleaning the inside of the rim barrel yet still very effective at getting into some tight areas.
Great brush! Bought it to replace a Speed Master that broke.
Awesome brush, wish that I had bought one sooner.
This brush is awesome. Makes cleaning the wheels a breeze. I've only used it twice but so far it seems durable enough. Quality construction. This brush should last more than a few seasons...I'm not sure if the rubber tip on the brush is removable, but if it is and it happens to come off that would render this brush almost useless, because under the tip is twisted metal wire, (the base of the brush).
Pros: Works great for getting back in behind the spokes and inside the drum with the wheels still on a vehicle. Flexible to fit into tough spots, fairly narrow to get around brake calipers and between calipers and the drum of the wheel.
Cons: Not great for closely spaced spokes - the examples shown on the video on the product page is probably as close as I'd go. The split-spoke wheels on my 2013 Charger R/T were pretty tight, which caused the bristles to fling water and/or wheel cleaner around. Was a little concerned that something with bristles like this would throw that stuff into my eyes.
Overall: I still think it's a little expensive for what it is, but the quality seems good and it does what it is supposed to do. Nice to have in my arsenal of detailing tools, but maybe not a must-have. I guess it depends on how much flexibility you need when it comes to types of wheels you'll be cleaning. Wheel woolies might be better for me in some instances, and a decent soft-bristled brush might suffice for the rest, but I can see this being a very useful tool for people that do a lot of detailing of different rides. It just doesn't necessarily fit my specific needs that well. That being said, I don't really regret the purchase, so I would say that I would probably buy it again.

Saves time and cleans wheels very nicely. It helps to clean the inside of the wheels I can't reach with a mit.
It does what it is supposed to do for a fair price.
The point of the brush gets in the way. Does not clean wheels very well, granted my wheels have a thick layer of brake dust, but it came right off with a lambs wool wash mitt, same as all other time. Save your money and clean the old fashion way, with a wash mitt.
Great brush! High Quality! Durable! It's become a staple in my cleaning routine.
Easiest brush to wash my wheels with. Memory bristles are pretty nifty and the brush is just the right amount of stiffness to remove build up without scratching the wheels. I bought both sizes and the little one is great for the corners of my spokes or anywhere I'd like a little more scrubbing power. Large one is perfect for reaching between spokes, cleaning the barrels and will even fit between the wheel and brake caliper on my Mazdaspeed 3. Handle is a little slippery when wet, so I plan on adding a bit of grip tape to them. Be careful if you don't like getting wet, because the bristles can throw some water back at you when they spring back.
I supposed it may be good for some type of wheels, some spokes, but doesn't work very well with my bbs mesh wheels, it leaves a lot of areas untouched. Even the small one is kinda large and the thing that sticks out at the front stops the brush from cleaning thoroughly. I was expecting something else when i got it.
I bought this mini brush and the regular size wheel brush, I have used the Regular size one the most because it fits a lot better on BMW, Benz and Audi cars. The mini I used it lightly on about 4-6 cars (lightly meaning just for the spaces with the brake calipers and spaces the regular size one doesn't fit) and the TOP black cover that holds the metals broke off so now it scratches the rims every time I try to use it. really disappointed when you buy a item and it doesn't last in quality.
Works as expected. I like the shorter length, and the bristles are soft and flexible enough to get into all the wheel's small spaces. Seems durable for many years of continued use, and price was reasonable. Good purchase!
Nice brush! I bend the head on this brush to get behind the spokes of my wheels and use the larger brush for cleaning the barrel. Quality brush, well built, and durable!
Nice bush for my Jeep wheels
Nice brush, easy to use, good size for easy cleaning access
It's a decent brush but I find it too long. The metal wire on the front could be shorter.
Works well enough but every other handle falls off. Not a big problem, just glue them on with epoxy and your back in business.The problem is they drill the hole a bit to large.
This a great product to have. My wheels are coated so it doesn't take much to be them clean. A quick swipe with these soft yet sturdy bristles using regular car wash and they are sparkling again. The handle is coated in a rubber making the handle non-marring in case you hit the spokes of your wheel. The brush rinses clean easily and dries well. Everyone should have one of these.
This is a great brush! The only thing to be wary of is the fact that when the bristles come back out of the rims, they flick droplets of black sludge all over the place! It being my first time ever detailing a car, I wore light-colored shorts and now they have a spattering of black droplets all over them! The droplets that hit my skin also required quite the scrubbing in the shower to remove! Not at all the fault of the product - only my own inexperience and ignorance! The rims looked GREAT after this brush.
Good tool if you are maintaining wheels on the regular. My wheels had a lot of build up with no type of protection on them and it took a lot of scrubing action to remove and even then there was still some. I find a MF towel might be better for MY wheels. The brush is good for those tough to reach areas of the wheel.
Very great product, I was unsure if this could reach the back of the barrel for my stock rims on the bmw m235i, but it did it very well. The brush are very soft and large, and it's also very flexible, so that it could squeeze into small and tight spots.
GREAT PRODUCT! Helps me clean my wheels beyond just the surface. I can get behind the rim spokes, brake caliper, and even clean the fender if i choose. It is a very versatile product that helps me get in all the areas that my hands cant reach. Would 100% recommend this product to anyone looking to keep their ENTIRE rims clean, not just the surface. One negative of the product is that it mists dirt back towards you while you are cleaning the inside of the rim. I usually will have tiny black spots on my clothes of skin when I am done. Thankfully all of it washes off so no worries. I use this product every time I wash my rims and use the smaller version for engine detailing and exhaust tip clean up. Overall, it is a great product.
I have found that Wheel Woolies from Chemical Guys do a better job cleaning wheels and calipers than this brush. Not to mention that the wire stem bends easily just above the handle. Just a matter of time until it breaks.
I use the brush to make sure the entire rim is cleaned. It reaches all the way to the other side of the barrel of the rim. Great time saver in that the rims then do not have to be taken off to be cleaned. This is the best tool I've seen in many years as a pro detailer for cleaning rims.
We use the small brush every day, I would say it is the best brush yet. The handles fall off fifty percent of the time, no problem with a bit of epoxy.
You can never have enough tools in your wheel washing arsenal. This gets into those nooks and cranny's of your wheels and brushes away. Great for the wheel barrels, spokes, in and around rotors. Will splash into your face when you pull the brush out so be cautious if you have chemicals or really dirty break dust/contaminates.
I bought both brushes and they work great! I can reach areas behind spokes/around the calipers I hadn't been able to with my other wheel brushes. Only thing is you might need to wear safety glasses (or put a paper/styrofoam plate on the handle) as the brushes kick back product as you pull them out of the spokes.
Expensive for a wheel brush, but you get what you pay for with this brush. Aluminum rims fear not, soft and flexible. Will reach wear others fail. Solid product.
This thing is awesome. One of the most underrated products. A must have.
makes cleaning the rims a lot easier. Can get to the hard to reach area's.
This is the first specialty brush I have ever bought and used to thoroughly clean my wheels. I can only say: Why did I wait so long to buy this brush! I have busted my knuckles, cut my hands and just had to let dirt remain on the wheels because I did not have the right equipment. But, now that I have this brush there is no excuse for a dirty wheel. Easy to use and just the right length to get all areas. It's easy to bend for tight spots and there is no spot on the wheel safe from being scrubbed.
Very useful!
I always use this on my rims and it allows me to clean the barrels decently without having to take the wheels off. I use this with the Sonax Wheel cleaner Full Effect for maximum results. I use the brush also in my wheel wells when I work on cars with too tight a space to fit my hand into the wheel well with my other brush.
Nice brush.
Provides good to great agitation.
Does fling a bit of muck back at the user however.

A must have. Cleans the entire width of my wheels with ease. Fits in between the spokes easy too. Easy cleanup as well. 2013 civic si stock rims btw.
Simple one of the best if not the best wheel cleaning brush, if you care it you can have it like new for a long time, you can clean your wheel barrels and even behind the spokes without problem. a MUST HAVE product!
I love getting more of my rims cleaned by using this product. It also makes the engine bay so much easier to clean and detail. I use to hate cleaning the engine bay but now, it is easy and fun because I get great results with much less time and effort.
My one compliant is the there are not bristles at the very end. It seems the EZ Go fixes this problem and will most likely be asking for it for Christmas!
If you don't have this you really should get it. There is a reason so many people have written about, reviewed, and recommended this brush. It is very flexible and has excellent memory. Here is what I mean by that.
When I first opened the box, I was upset because I felt the brush arrived damaged because half the bristles were bent over. I wrote a note to Detailed Image and then started reading online to find more information. I received a prompt note back from DI confirming what I was reading online, namely that the bristles could come back to their original form. I followed the instructions of running it under hot water like DI said and was amazed. It was full as could be! Now I can use that simple trick any time I need the bristles to pop back up to their fullest!

I needed to easily get deep into the wheel past obstructions. This brush does the job well. I hope it is durable considering the price paid for it.
Cuts the time to clean the wheels to less than 10 min. It fits between the spokes perfectly. Quality product!
Brush works great, but I found the plastic handle very slippery when wet. A textured grip or rubber handle would improve the product even more.
The two brushes, the large and the small one take care of all the places that were always a problem before. Now I can clean properly the calipers and the very wide barrel of the polished aluminum wheels on my 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT. Many thanks for two great products, wouldn't be without them!
These are great brushes. Very soft yet very effective at heavy cleaning. I like how you can bend them for hard to reach places. They are holding up very well for me and would buy again.
Very easy to clean the interior of the rim. Brush is flexible enough to squeeze into tighter spaces and still stiff enough to do a good cleaning. I keep the interior of my rims fairly clean. This brush will make it easier.
This brush rocks!!! Cleaned the wheel in fraction of the time, especially useful for those wheels with lots of spokes, great for exhausts, engine bay, door jams, etc. A must have for anyone who wants to be more efficient and clean every part of the car.
This was my best purchase from Detailed Image to-date. The brush makes it easy to clean the wheel wells while saving a lot of time in the process. I definitely recommend this item.
This brush can fit anywhere and is great for the back of wheel spokes. It is also perfect for cleaning exhaust pipes. However, gloves and other protection should be worn as there is a lot of splash back when you remove the brush from what you are cleaning.
This is a must have for wheel cleaning. Clean every part of your wheel and even your calipers without taking the wheels off. I also use this brush to clean exhaust tips. Depending on the design of your wheels you might need another brush to clean the face of the wheels (for example DI Brushes Boar's Hair Detailing Brush) as this brush is best suited to cleaning spokes & the inside of the wheel.
Great product except for the handle. The handle should be made out of something other than wood, because water and suds on the smooth wood handle make it difficult to handle the brush. Other than that, it works great.
I've used this product for about 5 times, and it surely helps clean the wheel barrel very efforlessly. I have found the brush to be durable as long as you don't throw it around or abuse it. Splatter while taking it out is simple physics (I cannot fault the brush for this)- and the easy way to avoid is to take the brush out of the wheel at an angle away from you.
I bought the larger brush so I can only review that model. This brush is great! I'm not sure what the others were talking about because the larger model is very well built and takes some moderate pressure to bend. As far as the dirt spray when you pull the brush out of the rim. I found a VERY SIMPLE work around for this. simply cover the brush with your wash mitt as you pull the brush out and PROBLEM SOLVED. You will not get sprayed.
Customers ask how I get their rims so clean from the outside all the way to the inside. This brush helps greatly in cleaning rims without having to take them off of the car. One of the most valuable products I use and a great time saver. The larger size can be used on most small rims as well.
It's a must have.I bought the Big one and the Mini. You have to wear gloves and safety goggles to protect against splatters when using it.
It simply reaches places your hands and other tools cannot. I sprayed down the wheels and the brush with CG All Clean and cleaned the wheels and engine bay with ease. Simply rinse off afterwards and let dry for next weeks wash.
I used this brush with Sonax Full Effect Wheel Cleaner and I was unprepared for the "sling" or "throwback" from this brush when I was scrubbing the wheel barrel and getting into the spokes. The bristles of the brush will throw the wheel cleaner and the dirt back toward you when you pull the brush back toward you. The only way to prevent this is to twist the brush or rotate your wrist in a different direction. The bottom line is that this brush creates more of a mess.
One word: Awesome. My exhaust tips needed some care and this brush worked well! I sprayed the inside of them with Greased Lightning and let soak. Then I used this brush and really agitate everything inside the tips. Uses some towels and cleaner solution and pulled out all the grime. Looks beautiful! I then thought cleaning the brush would be a nightmare: no way! Nothing stuck to the brush. Its like brand new. Worth the money, I promise.

Wonderful! This is the best brush I have ever used. Its got a nice rubber cap on the tip of the brush so that you don't scratch the rim, it gets in deep, cleans the dish of the rim. It can be used in many different ways/angles. This beats any rim brush I've bought. I bought the big one and use in on my 2004 silverado with 18's, and even my girlfriend's 2003 grand prix GT with the aluminum polished rims, works wonders with the chemical guys citrus tire/rim cleaner!
After reading the great reviews, I had to try one to reach the back part of my 9" wheels. Wow, what a great product. My wheels are unbelievably clean now and I can actually see the shine from behind the spokes. The only caution as noted before is pulling the tool out can cause a splatter onto your clothes. Two thumbs up!
I purchased this primarily to clean the barrels of the rims (using Sonax Wheel Cleaner, obv) in between the spokes on one of my vehicles. Does a great job at that. Don't use it for general rim cleaning as I have a separate microfiber mitt for that. May incorporate it for use in cleaning the engine bay when I get around to it.

I love this brush, I use it every time I spray Sonax on my Wheels. It loosens up dirt and feels very sturdy, It's great for getting behind the spokes.
This Full size EZ Detail brush and the Mini EZ Detail brush are by far the best and most used items in my arsenal to defeat road grime and brake dust. Combined, these brushes, with Sonax Full Effect wheel cleaner and even the dirtiest caked on wheels are a breeze to clean. If you are serious about detailing or if you have neglected wheels on your car these brushes are a MUST have. Their value is through the roof when you consider how much you use them and how many things you can use them on. Pound for pound the best money I ever spent, no exaggeration.
This brush can go all the way through the wheel and makes the traditional auto store brush like rubbing sticks to light a fire. It cut down time per wheel by 30% with better results. A high quality item for sure. It does not bend as much as I would like, but combined with small brush the wheel and calipers look fantastic with little effort.
When I first saw this thing it looked huge, I thought it would be too large but it works great. It cleans well and makes short work of the barrels of the wheels.
I already have the smaller brush but by adding the larger one is a must have for quicker cleaning of wheels!
A must have tool for any novice to pro detailer.
This is a truly indispensable tool for cleaning engines and wheels. It really does save SOOOO much time.
I was on the fence about this product for a while since I already had a small brush. However, this thing is truly amazing and that old brush has been retired! This has made wheel/engine cleaning truly effortless!
I own both the full and mini size E-Z Detail brush and it's been a great addition to my repertoire of detailing products. I'm just a car enthusiasts not a professional detailer but I find that these tools are great in making dirty cleaning jobs a lot easier. I use Sonax wheel cleaner along with this detail brush and a boar hair brush to clean my wheels. The mini E-Z detail brush is great for small spots or the muffler tips. Full detail brush is great for the engine bay and wheel barrels. It's my go-to product for cleaning my M3 wheels and friends that tried it before end up picking one up also.
Found so many things to use this brush with, wheels, engine bay, door jambs, and in between quad exhaust tips. I love it. The bristles are a bit soft after prolong use but nothing good last forever.
The rubber handle broke away from the rest of the brush. At the core of this item are two metal wires that resemble those wires used on cheap white clothes hangers(kind that you get from the dry cleaners). They did not last more than 3 cleanings of my car's rims.
This brush works very well. At first I was wondered if the bristles would be hard enough to clean but when you use it with some P21 it worked great at getting into tight places without breaking or dislodging something out of place, especially under the hood.

Great tool for rims! I have a 2004 silverado that had some grim on the inside of the rims. Rather than take my rims off, I purchased this upon a suggestion from a friend. It worked wonders! Accompanied with a wheel cleaner and water, this brush did the trick to make them look great! The flexibility is great, the fact that its made of plastic won't harm the rim, and the rubber tip on the end of the brush prevents scratches.
perfect size to get into crevices, bends easily as you need it
I don’t know how I would clean my wheels without the E-Z Detail Brushes. I own both sizes. They are great for getting the hard to reach places in your wheels, because you can bend them into any shape you want. The bristles are soft, which is nice and gentle on your wheels, but can make really scrubbing frustrating. Also on those cases when you are really scrubbing, they bend out of position. Those are the drawbacks but they are still great and I have never seen anything else I would rather have for the job.
This brush has simply made my life so much easier and cleaner! I was shocked at how I let myself suffer cleaning my wheels and tight areas without this brush, now it takes me half the time and half the effort to clean my wheels. I was so impressed I bought the smaller brush last week.
Love this brush. I have both the large and small one. Very easy to clean the barrels of my wheels with this. Comfortable and easy to use.
This brush is useful in the engine bay, but on wheels it is too easily bent. If the handle were more stiff I would recommend it.
I bought both, the small and the large detail brush and I'm very happy with them. My multispoke BMW wheels are finally clean on the inside.
Agree with the comments noted. Used the large brush. Brushes are a bit soft for heavy grime, and use goggles as you will get a face full of spray! I found the wire twist handle constantly bending a bit annoying but probably helps getting into tight spots. Used P21s spray cleaner, and the Tuff Shine Kit for a professional finish on my Mazda3s mags, finished with Mag Poilsh. Nice.
Not a bad product. It's more useful if you have many spokes on your wheels (I don't). It definitely helped get the inner wheel barrels cleaner than normal (in conjunction with Sonax wheel cleaner) - I was able to squeeze the brush between the wheel barrel surface and the brake rotors. (The smaller sized brush might work better for this). The bristles are soft, so it's not the best tool for removing really thick, caked-on layers of brake dust.
As others have noted (including the product description), you will get sprayed with dirty water/solvent when you pull the brush out from the wheel. My solution was to direct a spray of water from my hose at the brush as I was pulling it out. This kept most of the dirt from spraying on me.

Awesome brush! Very happy with it. Going to buy the larger one as well!
Not enough scrubbing strength, short life span. The mini brush actually broke at the stem on the very first wheel it came into contact with. :-(
Bought both the big and small brushes. Does a great job. Just be careful pulling the brush out of the wheel or you'll be covered in wet break dust
This brush is really convenient to use and simple... But one thing I dislike is how much grime and dirt you get flung back at you.... I think instead of wire, some sort of snap feature as a joint would be better, I'm afraid of bending the wire to the point of breaking.
Great accessory if you have multispoke wheels. This made it alot easier to clean my wheels and the flexible wire makes it perfect for getting into hard to reach areas. Bristles are soft yet rigid enough to clean any surface without scratching it.
Used small one on the engine and it got into the tight areas, kept forgetting not to stand right behind it and got sprayed in the face a few times as I pulled the brush out of a tight spot.
Great brush, but as with others the bristles are very soft and sparse. I would buy the mini if I were to order again.
Perhaps a "maybe" - nice brush, does get in behind the face to the barrel, but a little soft for my taste to be totally effective. Bristles are a little sparse.
Perfect to clean my 18" rims. Long enough to clean inside the rim without busing knuckles, helps when there is a rubber stopper to protect your hand. A lot less stiff than auto parts store brushes. Bends easily.
awesome! get both sizes! a must have!
Super soft...which is a good thing, but I end up getting a dirt bath. When you pull it out of places like spokes, or tight engine compartment areas, it will fling water and dirt back as the bristles straighten out. I'll continue to use a mitt to get the inner drums of my wheels clean. This brush will be demoted to underhood and undercarriage work.
I use this brush for cleaning between the spokes and cleaning the rim inside the wheel. This brush reaches through the spokes and will clean inside the wheel and is a tremendous time saver. Paired with PS2 Gel the results were amazing, wish I had found this product sooner.
I was looking for a good wheel brush that would clean out the spokes. I have a 3G TL w/ stock wheels, and those brake dust collects all over. Not as bad as Euro cars, but enough to make the wheels look really bad. The bristles are soft and they fold right into the small space in between the wheel and brake rotors. Slow rotation back and forth gets the job done. Although the face of the wheel, you will need a sponge to wipe the rest of the dirt off. Spray simple green and let it sit for a minute or so, then go into town. They don't sell this type of brush in stores, so I had to order it. All other brushes I had either bent or just wasn't long enough to handle this type of job.
Awesome Brush & Great Customer Service !!

I took my wheels off to clean them, therefore this tool wasn't really necessary. Also, if you want a good rough scrub, this brush won't do it. On the plus side, it prevents you from applying too much pressure and possibly marring the rim. All in all, good buy for convenient maintenance cleaning.
This is the best brush that i've ever used for cleaning the diamond cut style wheels on my wife's 325ix. I regret not buying the mini as well as it seems that the majority of the tip of the brush is all that was really used in this application. The brush really did a great job removing the built up dirt, but also cleaned up incredibly well. this IS a quality brush!! I also used it on the 5 spokes on my 318ti and it did a great job getting all the way to the back of the rim and when contoured to fit, even cleaned behind the spokes really well. This was money well spent!
My only complaint was that I didn't purchase the mini at the same time.

The standard, and with good reason. This brush, along with the mini-me version, has replaced four or five other cumbersome brushes. It works just as well on sidewalls and wheel wells as it does on wheels. (And yes, before you cringe, it rinses easily in between.) I hesitated for months based on price...silly me. If you're remotely considering it, do it.
I don't know how I lived without it! Makes cleaning my wheels a breeze, gets into all the crevices yet is very soft.
Like others said, handle broke off from normal use.
Works wonders for cleaning your entire wheel including the inner barrel. Also bends so you can clean the back side and prevent brake dust from caking up.
Use this with P21S Wheel Gel and you have a great 1-2 punch for cleaning wheels.

Works well for little brake dust but it works... Used other cheap brushes with harder bristles and it always get the dirt all over me..
This is a must have - it makes cleaning the wheels so much easier. If you don't want brake dust to splatter on you in the cleaning process, stand a little off to the side.
I have both the mini and full sized brushes, and use them weekly on my wheels and engine bay. Both are fantastic for the price, and are "must have's' in my arsenal. Couldn't imagine detailing my car without them.
Loved it, brush works wonders in tight spots a microfiber can't fit. Makes engine bay detailing such a breeze! I bought the Mini brush
I like the brush and use it to clean my wheels, however it feel a part were it threads into the black handle.. I have not had this brush several months. I would think it should last under normal care this brush should last a year or more.

I earlier said I would *not* buy again, but that was based on the full size. I sold that one on eBay and bought the mini, and I'm glad I did. It is easier to manage for cleaning spokes and whatnot. It still doesn't clean the face of the wheel, but the mini works great for me. And is versatile enough to clean other areas if necessary, like door jams.
Love it!
Too big and rough for my taste on my wheels. Poor quality as described by other posters.
Way too expensive and not well built. Broke after about 15 washes. The rubber tip on the top wore out, taped it up with black electrical tape. Then, the handle simply snapped off. If this were an $8.00 product, no big deal.
Worked great...before it broke. Not like I was overly rough with it or anything, but the handle broke off from the brush after maybe 10 wash uses.
Been using the mini-brush on my wheels and exhaust tips. Works pretty well and does a pretty good job of agitating brake dust on the wheels. But the key is to use a good cleaner with it.
This is a must have, works very well. Seems to be durable, have only used a couple of times at this point.
Works very nicely. Bristles are soft yet seem to work well. Very safe on wheels although you may need something a bit more aggressive if your wheels are very dirty.
Have both the mini and regular detail brushes and can't imagine what it was like to clean my car without them. Great for wheels, wheel wells, exhaust tips, etc.
I have the bigger ez brush for my truck, but it was too big
for my wife's Civic,used the smaller brush on the civic,works like a dream. EZ brushes are the best I've owned.

It just made rim wheel cleaning so easy. It's easy to reach every single parts. But, still it was quite small than I thought. bigger one should be followed with mini one.
For my use it was perfect! I'm in a wheelchair so getting to my exhaust tips is a bit of a challenge, but with the E-Z Detail Brush, cleaning the exhaust tips was a breeze. Didn't really purchase it for any other cleaning purposes other than my exhaust tips...
I used the mini brush to clean the wheels and rims. An excellent brush. If you are using a good wheel cleaner like Griot's or P21S, you just let the product do the work and agitate a bit with the brush. A little more rigid would be good to help with the scrubbing action, but overall a good, solid, versatile brush.
Very flexible to get in all the areas of your wheel. I did have some trouble on my BMW getting the brush between the caliper and my wheel. Wasnt as much of an issue on my porsche. It is very flexible and bends a little more than I would like
I am very meticulous about my cars and the delicate wheel finishes. I order three of the small flagged blue brushes and they work excellent to get in all the nooks & crannies that make it hard to clean. I would highly recommend this tool to any car enthusiast.

I love this product, the mini is a great cleaning tool to reach tight areas where detail counts.
Superior brush for any wheel that needs to be cleaned. My wheels have no way of closing out any space to this brush. If you do get this brush I would suggest you use a safe but serious wheel cleaning product.
good product but as said needs to be more rigid. Also does not seem to be able to get the build up brake dust but works well other then that.
I can't believe I have been cleaning my car without one of these for this long. Great for wheels and the engine bay.
Excellent product for getting hard-to-reach spaces in engine compartments, between wheel spokes, inside the barrel of the wheel as well. The reason I am ordering a second one so soon is because the quality of construction is a bit lacking. For the price, it should last longer. Still like the product, but it could be better.
This brush made a world of difference cleaning the wheels of my 2005 330i with the 10 spoke ZHP wheels. Each spoke is actually a "double spoke" and even the mini-brush doesn't smoothly get between them, but it works well with a bit of practice.
Used in conjunction with P21S gel wheel cleaner, this brush did a fantasic job of reaching everywhere on the wheel. It even fit in the narrow spaces between the wheel barrel & caliper and caliper & spokes. Agitates well, rinses clean. Great brush, and worth the money.

LOVE THIS BRUSH!!! Bought the mini brush and used it yesterday during a detail on my 2009 G37's 19" 10-spoke sport wheels (which are normally a pain to clean). I even cleaned the barrels of the wheels, which normally I wouldn't focus on. Only one gripe -- the handle of the brush gets VERY slick with soapy water. If they could change the handle to more of a textured, firmer plastic, this product would be perfect!
Recently, I finally caved in and bought both brushes - Full Size and Mini, and I am glad I did. The quality is great. Both brushes feature Memory Bristles, so you just rinse them in warm water after a car wash, hang them dry, and the bristles return to their original shape. The bendable wire on both brushes makes it easy to twist the brushes to whatever shape or angle you need. The wire is extremely thick and won't be snapping on you any time soon. The Full Size is great for wheel barrels - large cleaning area but can also fit easily into tight spaces. I like the Mini for getting behind the spokes. Both brushes have long handles for easy reach.
My only gripes are that the bristles are very soft, so the scrubbing power is limited. And the handle becomes slippery in soapy water which makes it tricky to hold. I have tried many different wheel brushes similar to this and both EZ Detail Brushes are the best ones so far. Once you buy one, you understand why it's pricier than most other wheel brushes.

Excellent brush to have. I used it to cleen the inside of the rims and behind the wheel spokes with ease. The flexibility of the brush is also a plus. I highly recommend this product. Looking forward to purchasing the larger brush in the near future.
Nice brush. Does what it is supposed to do. For those that say that it does not get off the heavy stuff, try some PS21 gel...Or even better, clean your wheels the right way...take them off of the car, use some Poorboys wheel wax...clean your fenders with the wheels off. This is a once a year process and well worth it.
Since my rims have been properly maintained from day 1...it really works well...I really like the brush

I like the brush very much, and it was nice that this brush can get behind rotors and clean the inner barrel. I was surprised how flexible it was. It doesn't really clean the surface of rims, just between spokes and such. I only said "no" to buy it again because I think the mini would have been better suited for my application. Maybe I'll pick up a mini in the future.
This brush works great for those tight areas like between the caliper and the barrel of the wheel. I just wish the stem was a little stronger. Overall, a very useful tool that I will continue to use again and again.
this is the only brush my expensive Volk rims will ever see. use this to get into the barrel portion and behind the spokes. very gentle and will not scratch highly polished and anodized lips. probably not the best for really dirty wheels, but great for maintaining clean wheels.
I love that this brush has a flexible neck; it definitely makes it easier to reach behind the spokes and clean out the inner barrels. For those of you with multi-spoke wheels (my wheels have 10 split spokes), you won't have to worry; this brush fits into every nook and cranny you can think of!
It is what it is, a wheel brush. With the right products it is a cleaning machine, a joy to work with.
Great tool for the cleaning supplies! Perfect for cleaning the inside of my deep BMW wheels. Also great on many items in the garage including the lawnmower. Can be difficult to clean after getting thru heavy grease but what tool wouldn't be...
Yes--- If you have a very dirty not cared for wheels yes you will need a stiffer brush to remove and fix it.... But If you properly keep your wheels clean (wax them and from than on every 6-8 weeks re wax) than u just use this brush with the wash to keep your wheels clean!
it is flexible and goes easily behind to clean behind the rims --excellent--cleans off easy too... The bristles clean everything getting into nooks and crannies... simply wash out with hose and ready to go again and again. I have used for over 13 months (did re buy one as the cap rubber came off and i lost it:-() so bought another...

Its OK for lightly soiled rims...Ive bought both the Long and Shorty and tried both out...heavier caked on wheels will need stiffer bristle brush or longer time for APC to penetrate or stronger cleaner. Bristles are a bit too soft for my personal liking and easily bend (due to length of each) Good for damage-free cleaning but only if the cleaning is light. A bit overpriced (everywhere!). Coated tip and wire are a nice feature but also bend too easily. Maybe a stronger metal and slightly stiffer bristles would be ideal. Nice knuckle guard but painted wooden handle made it feel low-grade. How about some rubber grip-type handle with stiffer wiring and bristles! Jackpot!

I feel the brush is good for light cleaning but doesn't pick up the heavier dirt/brake dust. Bristles are too scarce (not dense enough) in my opinion.

Soft bristles and protected tip will not damage wheels. Length is good for reaching inner barrels of wider wheels. But shaft is too flexible; bends too easily when force is applied to remove wheel grime, even after pretreating with a wheel cleaner. This product is over priced.

By far the easiest most efficient way to clean wheels. For lightly soiled wheels I use this with Meg's APC+ 10:1 and it powers right through them. No more having to take the wheels off to get the insides of them clean as this brush easily reached the back of some 9 inch wide wheels.
Have yet to try with a gel wheel cleaner, but I'm expecting great results as well.
This brush is worth every penny, and gets into every little spot on a wheel.
