Brush for Top Cleaning

I bought the 303 cleaner and protectant products but was curious if any of you have found a good brush to clean the top. Didn't want to take my chances on a random Amazon purchase without asking you all first. Thanks!

I use Groits Garage horse hair brush on my M240i vert and now my Z4. Works great but does leave some horse hair behind as the brush gets older. You can get it on amazon or directly.

My car cover left a heck of a lot of cotton fluff all over the roof. The only thing that got it off was one of those sticky lint clothes rollers.

One quickly finds what NOT to use on a top. I pulled out a brand new cotton covered sponge to wash the top of my 1996 Corvette LT6 years ago and discovered that the top was a lint magnet. It went from being a black top to something closer to white! Many hours spent with a sticky lint roller you mentioned and it was back to black. Never again!

Lint roller seems like the best option.

I use a soft bristle brush on a paint roller extension pole. Works like a charm and I also use it to wash my wife's X3. About $15 on Amazon. BTW, I used 303 on the top in Nov. 2019 and it is still doing fine.
