The Ultimate Detailing Brush Re-Invented. We’ve done it again! Our great customers and friends worldwide kept asking us to design a brush from scratch. We wanted to design and build something that would reinvent the category.  An easy-to-grip brush that wouldn’t slip out of your hands when it gets wet. A comfortable design that would be a pleasure to use. A unique creation that would encompass sleek design and ergonomic comfort. You asked for a brush with more bristles than ever that would clean even faster. We asked for your feedback and we did our best to make it happen because at Chemical Guys …. It’s our customers that make us great!

Gentle yet strong! The New Chemical Guys Designed Raccoon Brush delivers some serious cleaning power. The Raccoon is a stocky, medium sized mammal with a broad head, pointed snout, and bushy tail. The Chemical Guys Raccoon brush is a gray handled premium detailing brush engineered around the rather cool and unique design of a raccoon’s tail … Why a raccoon your ask?  Because they are simply awesome!

Why did you guys call the brush the “Raccoon”? The raccoon is just cool. The raccoon also happens to be cute.  Let’s face it, when thinking about awesome animals the raccoon is quite awesome.  They appear small and friendly, but they are actually quite aggressive (especially chubby, hungry raccoons). We took an office poll on which animal we liked that most resembled our brush, and everyone voted for the raccoon (except Jeremy who was too memorized by the brushes handle to generate a name). Our cool new brush really resembled a raccoon’s tail. Much like the raccoon, our brush is friendly and safe, yet tough and aggressive on wheel grime and brake dust. Hence the all new brush was named “The Raccoon”.

Product Features ·         Unmatched state-of-the-art design ·         Designed for all wheels and Rims ·         Easily bends to fit where you need it ·         Unique “Safely Tip” Design ·         Chemical Guys premium ergonomic handle ·         Soft, nonabrasive bristles with professional strength ·         Textured non-slip grip ·         Chemical resistant body and bristles ·         Professional reinforced flexible woven stem ·         Industrial strength that lasts for years ·         Great for all cars, airplanes, motorcycles RV’s and much more. Raccoon Note: No raccoons were harmed or even touched during the design and manufacturing process of this brush. Please do not use a raccoon animal to clean your wheels. Although they look friendly, raccoons are actually quite aggressive and hostile.   The Brush has a unique raccoon tail shape.  It has a full 11 inches of elongated bristles. The unique tip design and elongated body make it easy to fit in tight spaces and wheel crevices.  The thick cleaning brush starts by using premium cleaning bristles ½ inch in length that gradually extend to 2” inches in length.

Just the Tip.  We know you’ve heard it before, JUST THE TIP!  Everyone knows that any job worth doing is worth doing right.  All too often the tips of brushes are left bare or without coating. Some brushes find a cheap inexpensive solution to bare metal tips like coating them in vinyl.  We felt that was just NOT good enough.  Chemical Guys designed our own scratch proof air-cushioned tip. The raccoon brush comes with our first ever air-cushioned tip designed to make wheel and rim detailing easier and safer for all wheel finishes. The first tip designed to be bendable, pliable and squeezable so it fits into tight spaces without scratching or scuffing.

Bendable and Adjustable -Ideal for Interiors and Engine compartments - Designed to be used anywhere, the new Chemical Guys Raccoon brush is great for tight and hard to reach places like engine compartments and interiors.   Bend it the way you like it.

All New Designed Textured Handle with Tough-Guard - The ergonomic easy-grip handle is made of a chemical resistant and comfort-grip rubber.  Even wet the handle is easy to grip!  The unique design of the brush gives the detailer maximum comfort with a unique finger grip and knuckle guard design.  The handle flares out as it gets closer to the bristles. This unique Chemical Guys design provides the customer with superior comfort and safety. The 3 ½ inch diameter guard protects hands from cleaners and degreasers. The brush side of the handle is flat to allow for the most cleaning surface possible while the unique design of the handle prevents you from hitting your hand and fingers against the spokes and edges of wheels.

½ inch-2 inch “Pine Cone Design”- Nature has made some very cool things. One of our favorite is the design of the pine cone. We had a few sitting in the office and liked the shape. We also found the design characteristics of the pine cone quite suitable for a wheel brush. Having a brush that started off at the tip with a ½ inch abundance of bristles made it ideal for cleaning tough spots in tight places.  As you insert the brush deeper, it would enable you to clean wider holes and spaces as well. To us, that was a true winner.

Many of the great detailing tools designed at Chemical Guys Headquarters are developed thanks to our amazing customers world wide. Thank you very much for your feedback and input.  Here is what some Chemical Guys Family had to say about designing a new brush.

		Use it on your Motorcycle - The Chemical Guys Raccoon Brush is the ideal cleaning tool for motorcycles. Cleaning spokes, forks, wheels and engines has never been easier. The unique soft-bristle design makes it great for sensitive areas like chrome and polished metalwork.     The right tool always goes hand-in-hand with the right choice of chemicals. Chemical Guys offers a full range of wheel cleaners as well as all-surface cleaners ideal for use in conjunction with the Raccoon brush.

The Raccoon Wheel Brush is our most advanced, most radical detailing brush available. Designed, developed, and manufactured 100% by Chemical Guys from the feedback that our great customers gave us! The Raccoon was designed, developed and constructed for quick, easy, and super effective wheel and rim cleaning.   The perfect Wheel and Rim Detailing brush designed for the automotive enthusiast.  The Raccoon rim & wheel was designed from scratch to produce a superior brush unlike any before it.   Cross Woven, Super-Premium reinforced raccoon stem - We knew that if we were going to design an amazing brush, it needed a great beginning and a strong backbone.  We tested every brush we could find on all sorts of wheels while spraying every kind of degreasers we could find to test the durability and quality of the brushes.

Many of the brushes we tested didn’t bend. The ones that did bend only bent once. When you tried to bend them back to shape, they often times broke. This made us very disappointed.  We wanted to design a brush that wouldn’t fall apart. A unique brush that had a durable, bendable backbone. Just like the raccoon, our brush is true to its name. The unique banding of our brush is soft, yet durable making it easy to bend and fantastic to use.
