Back to wpe2.jpg (1354 bytes)Polishing Supplies Gateway Page,      Brushes Gateway Page

These large bristle brushes are design to be used on polishing motor tapered spindles. Primarily, these brushes are used to polish areas which are difficult to reach with a buff or felt. Cutting compounds (such as tripoli), and intermediate compounds (such a graystar) are the most common compounds used with these brushes.

The brushes are composed of 2 parts- the hub; which is the wood or metal block that holds the bristles in place, and the bristle, which, of course, is the brush part. Choose a brush based upon;

  1. The hub diameter
  2. The bristle length
  3. Converging or upright bristle (check out the pix to the right to see the difference between upright & converging).
