SALI 9 Pack Nylon Filament Abrasive Wire Brush Wheel & Cup Brush Set with 1/4 Inch Hex Shank, 3 Sizes Nylon Drill Brush Set for Removal of Rust Corrosion Paint

I purchased these to sand the dirt and soft wood fibers off some live edge Maple for a vanity I am making. The bark was stripped and I wanted something that would keep the original contours. The red (100 grit) works well and did a great job. Both the Gray and Blue deposited something on the wood that darkened it. Im sure they will work well on steel or something else. Good value.

This is a great assortment of abrasive nylon brushes and wheels for removing paint or rust from a wide variety of objects using your corded or cordless drill. They arent as aggressive as a wire brush but that can be a good thing when working with more delicate objects youre trying to clean up. They use a common ¼ hex shank and have worked great so far on a couple of rust removal projects I had.

Three different grits and three different sizes which gives you lots of versatility for many at home projects. I have several summer projects that need the paint stripper and these look perfect. They also look sturdy so will hold up well. Easy to use, too.

These worked perfect for sanding uneven furniture surfaces. Very impressed wish I knew about them earlier

Comes with 9 different pieces with different course brushes for multiple job needs. Each wheel is speed rated for 4500 rpm which is a plus, so you can use a drill or air tools to reach that higher rpm. Comes with the hex style shank for less tool chuck slippage. They worked well creating less surface damage as to using a metal brush.

I bought the 9 pack not because I wanted all 9, but because I wanted all the sizes. I bought two kinds of cordless drill wire brushes to strip the paint and rust from a water fountain. Wire brushes and wheels have a couple of problems worth noting: 1. They can break/shed bits of metal wire (which could lodge in your skin or eyes). 2. It turns out wire brushes are not as effective at removing rust or paint in part because they arent graded by grit! In part because the wire wheel can only remove what the tips of the wire touch. These nylon wheels with embedded grit come in 3 grits: 80, 120, and 220. I had a 1.25 gap I needed to remove the flaking paint and rust from and the narrow tipped items worked VERY well for that. One reason, of course is that it fit. But the other reason, is that the removal can occur not only at the tip, but also along the entire shaft of the bristle! That feature (using the sides of the bristles) made it possible to strip the rust and paint from parts of my piece that would have been impossible to get to otherwise. And the rust and paint removal was far more effective than any of the wire brushes I tried to use. Lastly, because its nylon and an abrasive, whatever is shed by the brush is less likely to rust. Consider, for example, stripping rust of a grill grate. Ive used a manual wire brush, and a power driven wire wheel, and then discovered bits of shed brush remained on the grate that then contacted/impregnated what I was cooking. Hamburger with a side order of metal shavings anyone? If I do need to resort to using using these abrasive brushes on a grill, I finish up with a nylon-only brush and damp rag to knock of any remaining dust. Finally, I also used a mesh style 80 grit on my orbital sander to try to remove rust and paint... even though they claim to last 10x longer than abrasive disks, they didnt go very far before they stopped being effect whereas these brushes apparently will continue to work until there is no bristle left.

Really nice set. Great quality and price. Wont go wrong buying these.

These work pretty good. The nylon bristles are very stiff. They definitely have different stiffness levels for the different brushes. They remove debris well. They aren’t quite the same as far as performance compared to a wire brush but close. They also have a huge plus side, they are much easier to handle without getting poked and losing blood :). These do work well. I don’t think I would replace my traditional wire brushes, but complement them with these. These definitely deserve a place in your tool line up.

This set of 9 Abrasive Brush Wheel and Cup Brush are a good assortment and of high quality. Perfect for quickly removing layers of paint and rust. Price is reasonable for the quality and quantity.

The metal back door had been scratched many times by the dogs trying to get back in the house after being let out to go potty. The scratching had removed all the paint and the metal was exposed to the elements and had begun to rust. These nylon brushes made the repair job easy. So much easier than using sand paper and the brushes didnt get clogged with material. Started by using the 80 grit wheel to remove all the rough rust and loose paint. Then, worked my up in grit to the 240 grit to a smooth transition point between the still painted portion of the door and the bare metal portion that was now rust free and smooth. Completed the repair with a rust preventative spray paint with primer, followed by 2 coats of outdoor latex house paint and finished off with a smooth plastic film to protect the paint from further scratching that will always be hard to prevent. Cant even tell that the door had been previously damaged and had developed rust bubbling under the paint. Great addition to my home repair arsenal of tools.
