had a look on the polished bliss site and they do spoke brushes but i'm after something to clean the nuts and nut hole with.
i guess the obvious thing would be a decent quality 1/2" paint brush, but i'm worried this might not be soft enough?

is this something that exists in the detailing world?

on one of the big us sites they do one just for that job comes in 2 types one for hand use and one for using on a power drill when i get out of work i will have a hunt for the link ....

Lugnut Brushes

always wanted to send for one, think they look cool

 

many thanks guys, didn't realise there was so much choice!

think i'll give the 1" detailing brush a go, that looks like what i had in mind

 

got the lugnut brush on my holidays and it works brilliantly!!

 

how hard/ soft are they mike ?? which one did you get ?

 

Might have to add these to the store!

 

F1 CJE, I got the exact one that's on your post as a lugnut brush (by hand, not machine) It's relatively firm, not really soft at all, but does the job extremely well!!

Rich (PB) got it from our good friend Ranny Pak!!

Cheers

thanks mate, would it do damage to fancy Rays nuts do you think. get them PB

 

i use a soft tooth brush or the brush that comes with wonder wheels. buy the wonder wheels, junk it and keep the brush

eta, if you're scrubbing hard enough to leave marks, you're scrubbing too hard.

 

lol, this coming from a man who's had the joy of Zaks alloys wire brush would be better suited to those

 

F1 CJE - the bristles aren't hard enough to do any damage, your nuts will be fine (ooer!!)

ha ha thanks, always try and look after them

 

need some sort of a grinder on those although i was having a bit of luck with a megs aggresive claybar. will take at least a whole day to get them sorted though. would be easier and cheaper to have the refurbed.

 

sprayed in a matt, lotus elise wheel type colour wouldn't show up the dust then

or maybe that's the look he's going for

got the detailing brush today, it's like a big pastry brush! absolutely perfect for the job though, gets right in the nut hole (christ, sounds like a carry on movie ) and cleans around the nut nicely

get them in the shop PB!
