Hate Winter Love Snobrum

[dd1101]

This winter has been pretty brutal for me in WV, being raised in Florida snow scares me

Just wanted to take some time a do a short take on the Snobrum.

This tool is a must for people in snowy regions! Cleaning the car is quick I did my Acura and wife's suv in under 10 mins. I haven't tried it on my black acura since it has ultra soft paint and my fear of inducing scratches.

Ill let the pics do the talking :xyxthumbs:

I'm a big fan also. I like to pull the snow towards me instead of pushing. Feel like its easier. personal preference I guess

I love mine as well and have been using mine for about 3 years now. Only only complaint is that something happened to my adjustment knob and now I have to tape it to keep handle fully extended.

I've thought about getting one of these. They're designed to make removing snow from your car or truck easier and inflict a minimal amount of damage.

Most of us use our arm or hand and I'm willing to bet the materials used to make the clothing that's protecting us is not as soft as the snow broom.....:bigups

I use my Snobrum to clear the last two feet of snow from my roof--it made me nervous to think about dragging it across the car -- felt as if there was any grit on the surface it might get trapped between the Snobrum and paint surface.

Found this OXO brush at Bed, Bath and Beyond [ame=http://www.amazon.com/OXO-Good-Grips-Twister-Brush/dp/B007148MYO/ref=sr_1_2?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1360163318&sr=1-2&keywords=good+grips+oxo+snow+brush]Amazon.com: OXO Good Grips Twister Snow Brush: Home & Kitchen[/ame]

The bristles are flexible but not stiff and note how the ends of each bristle are feathered and very soft. You can rotate it 90' so you can pull snow off the roof or hood if you like. I removed the scraper portion so that there was no chance of scratching some adjoining surface. Third winter and doesn't seem to be instilling any scratches in the paint.

Hey Bryan on my wife car I pulled the snow towards me and I did find that easier.

I love mine as well and have been using mine for about 3 years now. Only only complaint is that something happened to my adjustment knob and now I have to tape it to keep handle fully extended.

hey Pat, my adjustment knob wasn't working properly either. Good idea on the tape.

yea I agree, I tried not touching the surface as much after I got done with the hood. I am going to inspect it soon and see. I love how my neighbors use that $2.00 brush that you sweep with to clean the snow off...

You remember the scene from the first Godfather with the horse head.....
You sir will find Snow in its place...:lol2:

I bought one last November on one of those sales here. After reading about it that it was supposed to be more safe on paint then a regular snow brush. I bought it so if we got 3" to 5" of snow while my car sat at work I would use it. After it arrived I have been kind of hesitant on using it because it sure seems stiff and don't like the idea of hard foam touching the paint. All we have had is light snow but today it snowed a couple inches but I decided against using it and just cleared off the glass with the brush instead. Those of you that have used it have you noticed any marring on the paint? I would be curious.
