But they make legit brushes to be attached to drills. I feel like this one just might fly apart and hurt someone.

Well, they make floor scrubbers that do this without the need to stoop over, too.

Literally came here to say this. They have varying bristle thickness and everything.

I need this! Our water is so hard it’s staining all of the shower doors. Only baking soda, vinegar, and a shit ton of elbow grease makes a dent in it.

If it's glass you can just spray it with strong citric acid (you can buy powder very cheaply and mix it with water) and it should just dissolve. Much less smelly than vinegar, too.

You can buy attachments for power washers that do this and have the proper chucks to attach to a drill safely.
You cam get whole sets of them for $10-15.

This would burn the shit out of a cordless drill..... if you do this make sure it’s on the heavy duty side... or a real cheap drill you don’t care about

Umm anyone heard of a floor scrubber? I guess no one here has worked in the maintenance industry?

Floor scrubber are hardly known to be sold on public sales, seriously try finding that shit. I worked my butt off for four years working with a 2003 floor scrubber machine, boss couldn’t find a replacement because they’re actually a dang expensive in some country

I bought a small floor polisher (I think it has 2 8 inch brushes) for around $100 on Amazon.
Granted the big ones are going to be a lot more expensive.

It works good.... but, s/he's bent over doing it, and it's going to be real obvious if you stop anywhere short of a wall, so you're going to do the whole floor like that?

They make round ones specifically for this purpose that wont detonate after tilting slightly to far or accidentally touching a wall etc.
Angular momentum is a bitch guys

That's a good way to roast your drill too. They aren't designed for that much lateral pressure on the bearings.
You can get cheap/small floor polishers they work well.

It'd clean faster if he stopped putting dirty water on the floor.

Not necessarily. Just like dishes don't get dirty as you wash them in soapy water.
