FAQs
Are these brushes safe for delicate items?
No, these are professional-grade steel wire brushes and will likely scratch surfaces like plastic, soft wood, or fine painted finishes.
Can I use these to clean stainless steel?
Yes, but be aware that using carbon steel wire brushes on stainless steel can leave behind small iron particles that may cause surface rust on the stainless steel later.
What is the bristle length?
Each brush features a bristle length of 25mm.
Can I use these brushes with chemical paint strippers?
Yes, the steel bristles are resistant to most standard chemical paint removers, but be sure to wash the brush thoroughly afterward.
How should I store them?
Store them in a dry, ventilated area to prevent the wooden handles from rotting and the steel wires from corroding.
Troubleshooting
Bristles flattening after heavy use
Rotate to a fresh brush from the 6-pack and ensure you are using short, controlled strokes rather than excessive downward pressure.
Handle feeling rough or splintered
Lightly sand the wooden handle with fine-grit sandpaper and apply a wood sealer or oil to restore the surface smoothness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No assembly is required; the brushes are ready for use immediately out of the packaging. To ensure longevity, avoid submerging the wooden handles in liquid cleaning solutions for extended periods, as this can cause the wood to warp or the bristles to loosen. After use, knock out loose debris trapped in the bristles. Store the brushes in a dry, low-humidity environment to prevent the steel bristles from oxidizing or rusting over time.
