this cup brush is tough enough to clean the dirtiest machine parts especially in hard to reach areas. it is definatly made for heavy iron and steel. a bit too stiff for light gauge material.

I use these cup brushes often. They are by far the best tool for cleaning up old metal objects with flaking paint or removing surface rust. You do need to take care with them as they can grab in corners or when working around metal balustrades and rails etc but they will quickly and readily remove old paint ready for new coats. Many other uses as well around the home.

I purchased one of these to refurbish a large rusty mower deck. It worked great for removing the flaked paint and rust on the upper surface as well as for removing the hardened grass and rust on the lower. I spent about three hours grinding various parts and probably used about half the life of the bristles. I'll be getting a few replacements to keep around the shop for future use.
