A brush has the mechanical action but the bristle is wider than the groove, so it never gets in, and every pass leaves micro-scratches that hold more biofilm than the smooth plastic did. Ultrasonic cavitation is the only one of the three that puts cleaning energy inside the crevice without touching the plastic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need cleaning tablets?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. It runs on plain tap water.
