Wire Brushes
For best results wire brushes should be used at speeds not greater than
15,000 RPM. There wires are stainless steel, brass and carbon wire which perform well
on pewter, aluminum, stainless steel, and other metals, without leaving "after-rust".
Bristle Brushes:
These are excellent cleaning tools on silverware, jewelry and
antiques. The three shapes make it possible to get into tight corners and other difficult
places. Bristle brushes can be used with
polishing compound for faster cleaning or
polishing.
Tips for Bristle brushes:
1. Remember, the tips of a bristle brushes do the work. Operate the brush with the
lightest pressure so only the tips of the wire come in contact with the work.
2. If heavier pressures are used, the bristle will be overstressed, resulting in a
wiping action; and if this is continued, the life of the brush will be shortened due
to wire fatigue.
3. Apply the brush to the work in such a way that as much of the brush face as
possible
is in full contact with the work. Applying the side or edge of the brush
to the work will result in wire breakage and shortened brush life.
