Frequently Asked Questions
Can you use a wire brush on wooden surfaces?
Using a wire brush can help open the grain, create a more tactile feel to the surface, and achieve interesting textures and finishes. Use a hand brush in the direction of the grain of the wood, and then follow up with a surface conditioning disc or fine sandpaper to smooth the surface. You can then leave the wood untreated or apply your chosen stain, varnish or polish.
Can you use a wire brush on bricks?
Using any wire brush on bricks or blocks is not recommended, as the wire will damage the surface. If you want to clean the bricks' surface, we recommend the Norton Rapid Strip disc for angle grinders.
