Product Information
Full details
The B&Q 6-inch Laundry Scrubbing Brush is an essential tool for homeowners and laundry enthusiasts who need a reliable, compact solution for pre-treating stains and managing spot cleaning. Its primary benefit lies in the durable Union fibre bristles that provide effective scrubbing power without damaging delicate fabrics, though users should note that the wooden handle requires proper drying to prevent moisture damage over time.

FAQs
Can this brush be used on delicate fabrics?
While the bristles are effective on heavy-duty fabrics like denim, we recommend testing on a discreet area if you are concerned about potential abrasion on delicate silks or wool.
Is the handle waterproof?
The handle is treated with wax for water resistance, but it is not waterproof. Avoid prolonged soaking to maintain the integrity of the wood.
What are Union fibres?
Union fibre is a durable, natural blend of materials specifically chosen for scrubbing brushes due to its resistance to wear and ability to hold cleaning solutions.
Can I use this with bleach or harsh chemicals?
Harsh chemicals may degrade both the natural fibres and the wooden handle over time. It is best to use with mild detergents.
What is the exact length of the brush?
The brush is 159mm in length, which translates to approximately 6 inches.
Does the brush come with a hanging loop?
No, this model does not include a hanging loop, so it is best stored on a shelf or in a drawer.
Troubleshooting
Bristles appearing flattened
Rinse the brush in warm water, reshape the bristles with your fingers, and allow it to air dry hanging bristle-side down.
Wood handle feels rough or dry
Apply a small amount of food-safe wood wax or oil periodically to restore the finish and protect the timber.
Debris stuck in bristles
Use a wide-tooth comb or another stiff brush to rake through the fibres while dry to dislodge trapped particles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No assembly is required for this brush; it is ready to use immediately upon removal from packaging. Compatibility is broad, as the natural fibres are generally safe for most fabrics and hard surfaces. To maintain the life of your brush: after each use, rinse the bristles thoroughly to remove any chemicals or debris. Shake off excess moisture and store the brush with the bristles facing downward or in a well-ventilated area. Avoid leaving the wooden back submerged in a bucket of water, as this can cause the wood to expand, crack, or degrade the wax finish over long periods.
