    Default Custom Acrylic brush.

    This is my first go at an Acrylic brush. It was fun to do and a nice challenge. This one is for a fellow member, Redcane, who was very patient while we waited for the acrylic to finally arrive. This one has been sanded, inside and out, to 2500 and then polished with headlight scratch remover (plastic polish.) It turned this acrylic into glass! Very happy with the polish it produced. The knot is a TGN GradeA with a loft of 50mm.

    Thanks for looking fellas!!

    Sanded to 2500, before plastic polish.

    Super shine on that, nice choice of colours. Great lines, and cool that you can see the set knot within..
    Might need to try that out in the future..
    Nice work.

    Man is that thing sweet!!!!!! Better than anything I could have imagined. My wife is never impressed by anything shaving related and she loves it! Thanks so much Andrew.


    If anyone is curious about the colors, I am a life long Miami Hurricanes fan.
