Horsehair is the workhorse of a roto setup — the brush that does most of the actual wax clearing, after brass has opened the structure and before nylon polishes.
The anti-static property is the reason horsehair persists in a world of synthetics. Static holds fine wax particles against the base; horsehair does not generate it, so the base comes out genuinely clear rather than dusted.
- 6 mm horsehair bristles, anti-static
- 150 mm width — for full-size roto handles
- Suited to cold and moderate temperature wax removal
- Also works as the first polishing pass after powders and overlays
- Replaceable aluminium end caps and dense bristle pods
Where it sits in the sequence: brass first to open and clean, horsehair second to clear, nylon last to polish. If you only buy one roto brush, buy horsehair — it does the largest share of the work.
The same brush is available in 90 mm for smaller handles. Check your handle before ordering; widths are not interchangeable.
Moderate drill speed, light pressure, keep it moving. See all roto brushes.
