Brush and finish your Bronze Clay and Copper Clay creations with this 36-mm steel wire brush featuring long, stiff bristles, designed for post-firing finishing work.
This 3-row steel wire brush is designed for finishing pieces made from metal clay, particularly Bronze Clay and Copper Clay. After firing, the metal requires various cleaning and finishing steps to reveal its appearance and refine its surface. Its long, stiff bristles provide a more vigorous brushing action than a soft brush; it is therefore particularly suitable when a thorough surface treatment is desired before possibly continuing with gentler finishing tools. Its 36 mm brushing area allows you to work on pendants as well as small- to medium-sized metal pieces.
How do you use this metal brush with metal clay?
Work the surface of your fired piece gradually, without applying excessive pressure, to control the result and preserve the textured details. To make your own jewelry, follow our tutorial on creating a textured bronze clay pendant, for example. On a highly detailed piece, always adjust the pressure of the brushing to the contours to preserve the desired design.
Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced creator, our tutorials and technical guides offer tips and advice to help you explore metal clay, choose your finishing tools, and master the proper techniques for working with your bronze or copper creations.
