Frequently Asked Questions
Which brush size should I choose for my application?
The ½" brush is ideal for small fittings and detailed work, 1" and 1½" brushes suit most standard joints and pipe diameters, while the 2" brush is best for larger surfaces or when you need to cover a wider area quickly.
Are these brushes suitable for all types of solvent cement?
These brushes are designed for use with most common solvent-based cements and primers used on plastic pipework and components. Always check the instructions for your specific cement or primer to ensure compatibility and follow the recommended application method.
Can the brushes be cleaned and reused?
In many cases the brushes can be cleaned immediately after use with a suitable solvent recommended by the cement or primer manufacturer. However, due to the nature of solvent cements, many users treat them as consumable items and replace them when bristles become worn or contaminated.
