This product reunited a $14k watch high polished surface. DO NOT use to clean your high end watches with. Not even light use!

I love this detail brush. I use it to clean spots on my sofa. It does an excellent job cleaning up spills and it is gentle on whatever you are trying to clean.

I got this brush to gently clean rhinestone jewelry. It was cheaper than a partial horsehair brush I also found here. It's soft and works well on things you don't want scratched but have intricate details that require a brush. I use it dry. My rhinestone jewelry is nice and sparkly now!

I really like to clean the crevices and crannies on my silver pieces and this makes that much easier to do. I sometimes use a toothbrush, but this is softer and yet can be used lightly to really scrub the silver polish into the crevices, and then clean them out. It works very well.

It definitely gets into crevices and helps to remove tarnish in harder-to-reach areas, but it's not 100% effective even in areas where I thought it would help. Also, some of the hairs come loose while you are working with it and then you have to pull them away, polish and all. All in all, it's a GOOD product, but not a great one. I would recommend buying it if you need something to get into finer areas on silver pieces, but there might be something better out there...

My Grandmother left me her entire Silver Set when she passed and I've done OK keeping it clean, but since we moved to Texas I guess the humidity has not been good for it because after 8 months it is all black...and I mean SO darn black. This set actually belonged to my Great Grandmother and is over 120 years old. It's gorgeous! I actually had to wash it first and that took some of the black off. There are several pieces to this set that have extremely intricate detail and nothing I do ever gets it super clean. I decided to get this brush to help get into those places.When I got this brush I thought - There's NO way this soft brush is going to do anything to my silver. Boy was I wrong!!! I put some cleaner on the brush and then started to clean the silver. I used it on one of the serving dishes that has this "Grape & Vine" design around the outer 3 inches of the plate, and then I rinsed it in warm water. I was AMAZED at just how clean the silver plate is!! It looks awesome. This plate is one of the oldest pieces so I know I won't ever get it 100% clean, but I know that would decrease the value...so I'm OK with that. The black that is around the design actually enhances the beauty ~ I think!When I was finished, I cleaned the brush with Dawn and warm water and it's ready for the next cleaning. I did notice a couple of hairs came out, but I attribute that to the hair getting stuck in the really intricate parts of the silver - so it was expected. But only a few hairs came out...the brush is still in great condition.Would I recommend this brush? ABSOLUTELY! If it can get my silver as clean as it did - you won' be disappointed! I cleaned the entire set - which took me 2 weeks , and it looks beautiful! I even cleaned some of my silver jewelry and it got into places I couldn't get and made it look brand new.I'll be buying more so I'm never without this brush!

My mother had one of these brushes for years. When I saw it on your site, I had to have it. Thanks for a great brush and the memories.

Wonderful brush for applying my silver cleaner to all the intricate details of some of my sterling! I ended up purchasing another brush to help with the rinsing. It has worked better than using a old toothbrush which can leave fine scratch marks. I have not seen any marking or scratching on my sterling from the horsehair brush.

These high quality, soft bristled brushes are ideal for reaching into tight crevices. I own several of them and I keep each separate for a different use. Primarily I use this brush to clean silver, but they work perfectly for carved furniture and applying lemon oil, or if the piece is very dusty, I use a separate brush to dust and one for lemon oil. They are also perfect for cleaning braided rawhide gear such as reatas, hobbles, and romal reins. I use the old time bar soap made for "laundry, stain removal, poison oak/ivy treatment, garden fertilizer and insect control" with the initials F-N, and a little water to clean very sweaty, dirty pieces; allow to dry away from sunlight or heat, and condition with treatment of choice.If you take care of these brushes they will last for years. They are well made and rarely do they shed bristles. DAP~
