🔧 What it does & how to use
A scratch brush is a hand tool used by watch and clock repairers, and general metalworkers, to clean rust, corrosion, tarnish and old polish from metal components before further work such as polishing, plating or re-oiling. It's a simple, hard-wearing tool suited to both hobbyists and professional workshops.
- Hold the piece: Secure the part you're cleaning, such as a case back, movement bridge or tool.
- Apply the brush: Scrub the steel wire bristles firmly across the affected area using short, repeated strokes.
- Work in one direction: Keep strokes consistent to avoid uneven marking on softer metals.
- Rinse or wipe down: Clean away loosened rust and debris, then dry the part thoroughly.
- Repeat as needed: For heavier corrosion, go over the area again until the surface is clear.
