Well, corn cobs don't work on decks that well. Other places, maybe O K.. What are you trying to clean and how soiled is it?
Shurhold is popular but pricey. Attwood brushes are another choice. I'm sure Amazon has cheaper, but I try to support local brick & mortar.
Just the stick? Screw in or plug in with a snap/button? IMO Shurhold is the better snap/button handle.
Shurhold for handles. Td mop makes some nice brushes and chamois mops, so does shurhold...... it's personal preference and both are good, but for handles Shurhold all the way.
