--- Quote from: PekkaNF on November 16, 2013, 03:34:22 AM ---I normally would attack rust with citric acid or phtosphorous acid, but these are precision parts and I don't want to mess with ball tracks. Glass fibre brush sounds interesting. Never seen one. Would like to have one. Pekka --- End quote --- Common enough in certain circles, Pekka. Try an electronics supplier. This is what I have: http://cpc.farnell.com/jsp/search/results.jsp?N=411&Ntk=gensearch&Ntt=fibreglass+brush&Ntx=mode+matchallpartial&suggestions=false&ref=globalsearch&_requestid=50892 Except mine is yellow, not red. [ The top one, not the Shesto item .... ] As Andrew said, they can be a bit aggressive ... but they do have their uses, the little brass brushes are quite good ... Dave |
