Perfect little brush
A must have for any kind of rust bluing. Probably would make a great cleaning brush as well. Must for pairing with the wire wheels for carding.

Good quality brush
A durable handheld brush that was useful to card areas that a carding wheel won't get to.

Carding Brush
Bought the brush to card a pistol that I am rust bluing. Hand carding is a pain. After using after several applications I am using degreased fine steel wool for most of my carding. I use the brush mainly for carding checkering and serrations. You can use this for the complete carding job, but it would take a little longer. Nice soft brush.

Right tool for the job
Really handy for rust bluing. Gets areas carding wheel can't reach. Nice soft bristles leave good finish. Little pressure required. Does a better job than 4/0 steel wool and easier. Get both sized brushes to get into different sized areas. I will buy again. I didn't wear out my brush on a single gun.

THE Tool for Those Tight Spots
As with any consumable material these wear out as you use them, so you will need a few (one per gun job) That being said, it is almost indispensable as it is the one tool than get into those tight corners the wheel can't get and the wire wool can't reach. When you need it nothing else will do the job.

Works well
These are a must for rust blueing and work really well for getting in those tight spots your carding wheel won't reach. Hint...buy several if you have a bunch of projects to do, as you will wear them out!
