- Don't overlook the Milwaukee M12 3/8 Right Angle Drill (2415-20)...it has been a key part of our daily detailing arsenal for a long time. We simply "modified" it with some attachments for cordless scrubbing. Blake shows you one of the ways in which we use them. This pairs perfectly with the drill brush heads of different strengths to loosen dirt and debris from interior upholstery and carpets, scrub and clean tires prior to dressing, heavy cleaning of truck bed liners (including spray in), and is far easier to use due to its lower profile plus ability to use one handed. One additional insider tip, we use a rubber tip head to help loosen dog hair! We are constantly finding ways to adapt it to further cleaning and preparation tasks. This is so much easier to use than a traditional cordless drill as a scrubber.

I got this along with a surge for 99 dollars and finally found a use for the darn thing. This is going to be my most used milwaukee tool.
They are super handy for this application...just not as a drill.
WOW are you kidding me.....this whole time I've been using my regular drill that has way too high center of gravity and kicks back every now and then when the drill brush kinda gets caught in a weird angle...gonna be using my right angle for the car alot now 😂 Thank you so much for this great idea!!!
Chris, this is exactly the reason we do what we do and use the right angle. Unfortunately as a right angle drill it’s rather uninspiring, however as a cleaning motor for the drill brushes it’s just about as good as it gets. It also is easier to fit in spaces that are harder to get into like underneath rear seats on angles and alike. We’ve also started using these for big SUV tires since their battery powered we don’t have to get out the plug-in dual action polishers anymore to scrub tires. They are also super handy for scrubbing bed liners and rubber floor mats.
Great scrubbing solution. By putting a palm on the head you get added scrubbing pressure too. Thanks!
Exactly. They should be labeled "Right Angle Scrubbing Motor"

i came up with this idea for more compact size and get into tight areas. im glad you guys made video about it for detailing. ill be getting one right away.
Sounds good Trent, we use these setups regularly. Also good for truck bed liner cleaning.
You can even use it as a 3 inche polisher
You are correct. Mini rotary, which does decent vs by hand in some small spots. Careful to secure the pad arbor in well though... ;) We still use these daily in the shop.
ngl Blake has that Ricky Bobby "I don't know what to do with my hands" look about him.
It was late and he had been working his butt off earlier…plus a camera newcomer.
Great video. Can you make another video showing a few more uses you use this for around the shop please?
We have put together some more videos it’s been hectic here to sit down and get the content out there. Stay tuned as we will do our best to get that together and hopefully get back on our steady cadence.
I picked one of these drills up cheap and found it's pretty useless as a drill but this is a great use for it's lower speed and torque.
Yes. We use them daily still and without failure. Terrible as drill for sure.
@@xctechnology8806 I did manage to drill a hole with it! Mostly because I couldn't find my real drill but it did work, eventually.
It’s slow but guess in a pinch. Actually why it’s good for carpets and tires and spray in bed liners. Good rotation without too much speed to damage bristles or surface.
Alright Blake!
Nice ideas for that tool.
Can you tell me where you got those brush attachments?
They are from drill brush. Any of your favorite online detailing supply companies should have them available in a range of softness levels.
Actually !
I get a $1 for every one I say! Haha
What are those portable tables you’re using? Look pretty solid compared to my folding table.
@Kyles Detail Garage we get them online as we use ~40-50 of them at various businesses. I have seen HD have them on Black Friday/around holidays and also sometimes in some stores. They are the Dewalt DWST11556. We use them to hold battery packs and modules for testing, quick work desks, tool stands, polishers/pads during paint correction, and general workshop stuff. Have had over 500lbs on them at times. Super quick to setup and tear down.
@@xctechnology8806 awesome thank you. Looks like I’m headed to HD for a table and drill. 👍🏻
Great use of that drill. Does it have a locking trigger mechanism? That’s what I find annoys me the most about using my regular m18 Milwaukee drill.
It doesn’t have a locking trigger but because it has the large flat paddle trigger you can use it continuously for a really long time and doesn’t tire your hands. We scrub a full 8 foot truck bed and it’s awesome. (The regular pistol drill counter torques you hand/wrist which is tiring and requires trigger lock.) The large paddle also makes it easy to vary the trigger when needed for delicate areas.
Could use to clean interior of a home oven perhaps. If there were a longer handle that would be ideal.
Helen, We don’t see why not. We have found a lot of uses for the set up including scrubbing showers, tile floors, among others.
is that the regular Drill Brush White brush? I use their yellow on tires.
Yes, it is the medium duty version. We also use the teal version which is light/soft on more gentle items.
@@xctechnology8806 Thanks, never have seen the 'teal' color option with Drill Brush
@@MyGuyKirby sorry, used that generically, the teal ones are the Cyclo Soft Brushes which we add a thread spindle/arbor adapter on to use like the Drill Brush brand. In fact we like Cyclo brand of brushes better than the Drill Brushes. Just need to use an adapter.
Will this drill work for polishing wheels? Do they make polishing attachments that will fit the drill?
Frank yes it would work and have done that before! There are a multitude of polishing cones (with arbor adapter) available out there, we have also used it for larger exhaust tips.
@@xctechnology8806 OK good! Those are the 2 reasons I wanted to get it lol
