I have a question for you seasoned brush restorers. How do I get the oxidation and stains off the plastic handles??

I've had luck with toothpaste, it's cheap. Then use a polish like Flitz or something, a car polish will work, to bring back the shine. For some really tough ones, I've had to use real fine grit sandpaper.

 

Like 400 grit?

 

Very lightly, maybe even wet sand it.

 

i have a hot tub polish kit.it has abrasive sheets from 200 to something thousand and liquid polish .have repaired cd's with it..

 

I’ll have to do some looking. I have flitz but maybe I should try wet sanding. I’ll give it a go.

 

Working on the certifyd brushes. Here’s how number 2 came out.

Something I put together using an old shave brush handle, modified to fit a stainless ferrule I cut from a tube.

Good job Jim!

 

very cool sir..

 

Fuller shave brush that has seen better days. Just a minor polish and installed a pretty dense 22mm Black Badger knot I had lying around. The old boar was completely shot, and this knot matches it in color with a bit of scritch, it should work out fine..........

 

very cool sir,nice brush..

 

Great job Jim; Fullers, Klenzos and Rubbersets make beautiful butterscotch brushes. Congrats!
