Brushes are manufactured in a wide variety of types, for basic cleaning through to intricate painting tasks. Brooms and larger wooden backed products are mostly machine made using natural or man made filaments. Hand made brushes are either fabricated using synthetic resins or can also be drawn into blocks using wire. The types of fillings used today are more varied than in the past with many man made filaments giving better performance than their natural counterparts. Brushes are used in a surprising variety of industries, artists can be used in circuit board production, paint brushes can be used in a variety of painting work, apart from general decorating. There are sieve cleaning brushs used in the scientific trade for cleaning mesh, pickle paste and insulated brushes that contain no metal parts to corode or conduct electrical charge. The quirkily named Jamb duster is deployed as a dusting tool prior to painting, tooth brushes can be used for cleaning machinery rather than teeth. Tube or bottle brushes are often used for cleaning out engine cylinders and crankshafts. Brooms a very traditional product can be deployed for shifting solvent and other hazardous debris on a shop floor. The nail brush is just as likely to be used in scrubbing down circuit boards than in a wash room. The strangely named turks head is usually used along side Tar brushes and Strikers for ship painting amongst other out door tasks. Squeegees, not strictly a brush but a broom head with a rubber blade in it are used for pushing away liquids. Shoe brushes are still the best way of buffing up real leather shoes but a 'D' shaped handle pattern or grate brush is an excellent alternative. The Metal Finishing industry use platers or scraper brushes for applying polishing chemicals, Welders use wire scratch brushes which come in a variety of materials including steel, brass and stainless steel. Wood workers and Joiners have a requirement for glue brushes which band wood components together. Rants can supply all of these items and also design special brushes as well.
