Snow Brushes and your Paint
One of my colleagues has a new Black Audi and with news of a possible snowstorm in South Jersey he said he needed to get a snow brush that wouldn't scratch his car. I never even thought of that - even though I've taken some extra car while washing my Black car to avoid scratches.
Any suggestions on sno brushes with bristles that may be more friendly to the car's paint?

~One man’s opinion / observations
Snow and Ice Removal:
Ice Remover-strong enough to rip through thick ice, the Ice Dozer has enough designed-in flex to handle the curvature of today’s auto glass. Ice-cracking teeth cut into heavy accumulations; a wide, flexible blade finishes off the last traces of frost. A shielded handle near the scraping end lets you apply extra pressure with ease
(Ice Dozer)
Snowbrush-Stratmosphere Ultimate Snowbrush, this new innovation finally brings you the technology you need to save your car's finish this winter. It has Genuine Boar's hair bristles that stay firm, even when wet so it’s kinder to paint finishes than any other snowbrush. Prior to the Ultimate Snowbrush you have probably damaged your finish by using synthetic-based (plastic) snowbrushes that leave all sorts of scratches and swirl-marks on your finish (stratmosphere ultimate snowbrush.)
Sno Brum- a telescoping squeegee that removes snow from the windshield without scratching.
Clearing snow off the windshield is just part of the challenge, the rest of the car carries a heavy blanket of snow that obscures vision, blocks the radiator, and covers taillights. And on my 4x4, a foot of snow can pile up on the roof, creating a hazard for following vehicles. (Sno Brum)
PS: I'm no expert on snow as I live in the sunshine state(Florida)
~Hope this helps~
