What is the difference between a root brush and a panel brush, and what is a levang?

You'll find the answers here

1. Root brush: a scrub brush where the brush itself is made of rice root or Muhlenbergia macroura, which is the plant's actual name. It is a grass species, and it is not the grass but the roots that are used. These roots are particularly tough, resilient, and water-resistant and are therefore well suited for making scrub brushes.

Areas of use: Hard-wearing floors, old scrubbed floors, surfaces of stone or wood that get heavily soiled and need to be cleaned with soap. Also works outdoors. Not used for plastic floors.

2. Panel brush: A classic Swedish model of scrub brush where the wooden panel itself is shaped like an S. The brush can be made of soft tampico or coarser union blend.

Areas of use: Classic scrub brush. Used for floors and heavy-duty cleaning of kitchens, bathrooms, carpets, and furniture. Choose the hardness of the brush according to the area of use.

3. Levang: is a scrub brush that is manufactured with a mount or a hole to be mounted on a shaft. The levang can have different shapes, sizes, and the brush can have different hardness.

Areas of use: Used for scrubbing large surfaces, floors, or decking outdoors. Choose brush according to purpose.

4. Stove brush: A scrub brush with a handle, common German model. The stove brush was used frequently in the past when tiled stoves and iron stoves were found in every home. These were to be both cleaned and blackened, and then the stove brush came in handy. The stove brush is pointed at the front to reach all corners and edges of a stove.

Areas of use: Used for cleaning wood-burning stoves but works excellently everywhere where you need to get into the corners. A stove brush is also preferable if you scrub a lot or have pain in your hands and fingers. The handle makes it much easier to grip.

5. Bathtub brush: A special brush, round or oval, where the handle stands straight up from the brush so that you can reach and scrub the bottom of a deep tub or bathtub.

Areas of use: Used to easily clean the bottom of the bathtub. If you have a bathtub at home, this is a brush worth investing in. Cleaning the bathtub is otherwise both strenuous, uncomfortable, and time-consuming.

NOTE: All brushes made of wood and other natural materials can crack. The brush is not destroyed even if it has cracked a little. Wood is a living material and attracts moisture and dries depending on the environment in which it is stored. To avoid cracking, the brush should be stored dry between uses with the brush downwards.
