How to use

Install the wire brush on a compatible power tool following the tool manufacturer’s mounting and safety instructions. Before operation, secure the workpiece and ensure appropriate support. Operate the tool at recommended speeds; apply moderate, even pressure and move the brush across the surface to remove rust, paint or debris. Avoid excessive force that could deform bristles or damage the base material. After use, inspect the brush for wear and replace it if bristles are significantly worn or damaged.
