> 3 dayI have been doing some restoring of some items that I had in my garage. I had been sanding and using paint strippers of most of the projects. I saw these and ordered the set. These brushes came in such good use around some of the curves and joint areas with the removal of rust and paint. Speeding up the whole operation. Wish they had been here all along.

> 3 dayI bought the 9 pack not because I wanted all 9, but because I wanted all the sizes. I bought two kinds of cordless drill wire brushes to strip the paint and rust from a water fountain. Wire brushes and wheels have a couple of problems worth noting: 1. They can break/shed bits of metal wire (which could lodge in your skin or eyes). 2. It turns out wire brushes are not as effective at removing rust or paint in part because they arent graded by grit! In part because the wire wheel can only remove what the tips of the wire touch. These nylon wheels with embedded grit come in 3 grits: 80, 120, and 220. I had a 1.25 gap I needed to remove the flaking paint and rust from and the narrow tipped items worked VERY well for that. One reason, of course is that it fit. But the other reason, is that the removal can occur not only at the tip, but also along the entire shaft of the bristle! That feature (using the sides of the bristles) made it possible to strip the rust and paint from parts of my piece that would have been impossible to get to otherwise. And the rust and paint removal was far more effective than any of the wire brushes I tried to use. Lastly, because its nylon and an abrasive, whatever is shed by the brush is less likely to rust. Consider, for example, stripping rust of a grill grate. Ive used a manual wire brush, and a power driven wire wheel, and then discovered bits of shed brush remained on the grate that then contacted/impregnated what I was cooking. Hamburger with a side order of metal shavings anyone? If I do need to resort to using using these abrasive brushes on a grill, I finish up with a nylon-only brush and damp rag to knock of any remaining dust. Finally, I also used a mesh style 80 grit on my orbital sander to try to remove rust and paint... even though they claim to last 10x longer than abrasive disks, they didnt go very far before they stopped being effect whereas these brushes apparently will continue to work until there is no bristle left.

> 3 dayThese work pretty good. The nylon bristles are very stiff. They definitely have different stiffness levels for the different brushes. They remove debris well. They aren’t quite the same as far as performance compared to a wire brush but close. They also have a huge plus side, they are much easier to handle without getting poked and losing blood :). These do work well. I don’t think I would replace my traditional wire brushes, but complement them with these. These definitely deserve a place in your tool line up.

Greater than one weekThis is a great assortment of abrasive nylon brushes and wheels for removing paint or rust from a wide variety of objects using your corded or cordless drill. They arent as aggressive as a wire brush but that can be a good thing when working with more delicate objects youre trying to clean up. They use a common ¼ hex shank and have worked great so far on a couple of rust removal projects I had.

> 3 dayThey are nylon bushes with a 1/4 hex shank. They work the same as every other nylon brush I have ever used. I do like the 1/4 hex shank vs. just a round shaft. That will keep it from spinning in the drill.

> 3 dayI often have to “refurbish” things around the house because living in Florida is no joke with the salt water/humidity. These things have done wonders with tools, outdoor metal objects, and anything you put them to use with. At this price I expected a few nylon pieces flying off…nope, all kept intact to the piece. Even taking off mildew from a piece of wood was easy. This is a very nice set to my collection of tools to use for my needs,.

Greater than one weekI like that you have coarse, medium and fine bristles in each set of three. (3 red, 3 blue and 3 grey). My husband is a do it yourself handyman and wanted these bristles to remove some light rust and loose paint. Hes thrilled to be able to use these with his electric drill.

> 3 dayThree different grits and three different sizes which gives you lots of versatility for many at home projects. I have several summer projects that need the paint stripper and these look perfect. They also look sturdy so will hold up well. Easy to use, too.
