I have purchased and used Perciva kit before and been happy with the performance. So it was a fairly easy decision to give these a try to help look after my new car, particularly those awkward alloy wheels! The 5-piece kit arrives boxed along with a printed instruction sheet. There's a microfibre "noodle" wash mitt, tyre brush, 2 different wheel brushes and an interior dust brush.
The wash mitt is probably the most generic piece in the kit and does nothing to stand out from many others I've used. That said, it is nice and soft, holds plenty of water, and gets the job done well. The tyre brush is also very competent, having good stiff bristles and shaped nicely for scrubbing the tyre wall.
The two stand out items for me are the wheel brushes. I've used plenty of brushes previously that are too floppy to apply any pressure whilst cleaning. Worse still, many have poor protection on the handle/wire ends which leaves you at risk of scratching the wheel. No such problem with these. Both are of the same construction, with good sturdy handles, a thick "microfibre" style pile on the brush and a rubber cap on the end to prevent wheel scratching. They're just the right diameter to fit between the spokes on my wheels too! I particularly like the longer 'bent' version which allows much easier access to the back on the wheel spokes (the angle can be adjusted by further bending). Definitely the best wheel brushes I've used.
Finally, the soft interior brush works well at removing dust from air vents, interior buttons, knobs and dials.
Overall a great value kit that covers the basics of cleaning your car. Thumbs up from me!
