I am looking for a brush to go on my 20" 175 to strip vct floors.

Where can I get one? How stiff does it need to be?

You're better off using pads. They're cheaper and disposable.
Nylo grit brushes are pricey.
Cleaning a brush is a must and pain in the a**

Brushes will out last multiple cases of pads. Plus, you never have to stop to change out pads when doing jobs will heavy build-up.

To clean the brush, just scrub the floor during your rinse then it will be less work to wash out your brush.

We had some of these come in today. I haven't unpacked them yet, but the 180 grit is what I typically use for stripping. Lasts a long time. Yeah you gotta clean it out, but it's not just for stripping. You can use it for honing, cleaning hard water deposits off exterior tile, cleaning deep grout joints, prepping grout before color sealing, scrubbing textured stone, etc.

$230.00 is a lot of pads. Time and materials make it where disposing of the pad is cost effective.
