Claim 0:
1. A brush belt comprising:
a base member having a first side with a traction surface and a second side opposite the first side defining a mounting surface presenting a first edge and a second edge and having a longitudinal axis therebetween and parallel thereto;
a first section of bristles coupled to the mounting surface, the first section of bristles extending parallel to the longitudinal axis, each bristle of the first section of bristles including a first end proximal to the mounting surface and a second end distal thereto and having a first cross-sectional dimension at the second end; and
a second section of bristles coupled to the mounting surface, the second section of bristles extending parallel to the longitudinal axis, each bristle of the second section of bristles including a first end proximal to the mounting surface and a second end distal thereto and having a second cross-sectional dimension at the second end;
a third section of bristles coupled to the mounting surface, the third section of bristles extending parallel to the longitudinal axis and being positioned between the first section of bristles and the second section of bristles, each bristle of the third section of bristles including a first end proximal to the mounting surface and a second end distal thereto and having a third cross-sectional dimension at the second end;
wherein the third cross-sectional dimension is different than the first cross-sectional dimension and different than the second cross-sectional dimension.
