I recommend making the inner fibers more rigid. As is the case with a number of reviewers, with use, the innermost fibers fold inward, largely clogging the suction and particulate matter. I decided to paint the innermost fibers using an old toothbrush with the bristle tips dipped in some paint and apply the paint to these innermost fibers, starting at the bottom near the plastic body, in a slight swirling motion outwards, dipping and over the entire area continued. the inner loop of the suction brush until all inner fibers are completely covered. You'll find that they like to stay "more open". Let them dry and coat them several times depending on how "rough" you want them to be used, e.g. B. in a garage. They will still turn toward the center, but most of the time they won't clog the opening.
