Rust(?)y stains on brush?

[toddclare]

I’ve seen this on my brush and was wondering what terrible thing it might be telling me.

The screws holding the brush together are probably rusting.

That’s what I like to hear. Of all the things to rust or mess up I can deal with that. Thanks!!

I would highly recommend upgrading to a ProTuff brush:

That’s awesome! Thank you! This is the cheapo Crud one that the pool builder left for us to get us started. I’ve been intending to look up better brushes and I will definitely check that out!

Oooof! That's pretty high dollar for a pole/brush! Please @pjt , tell me how wonderful that pole is? I hate my current aluminum pole.

I too hate my pole. It’s bent and the lock on the extension struggles even on the straight part. I’m a fan of buying good “lifetime” tools.

It's cheaper to buy a quality brush with a lifetime warranty than many crappy bushes that don't last a season. I like having quality tools, especially ones that I use almost daily. The brush is excellent and money well spent.

The company also stands behind their product. I needed a small part replaced, and they sent an entire new brush immediately.

I don't have their pole, only the brush. I've been using a Pentair pole for the last 4 years and I've been happy with it.
