      Step 1

      Ask a Halfords team member about flexible finance. For cleaning brass: I use Trollull brand, oil-free '0000' grade wirewool (in a box/roll); it`s simple and cleans/burnishes beautifully. Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item. Due to the delicate fibres, gentle brush strokes are recommended, letting the abrasiveness of the fibreglass do the hard work.

      It can remove printing from the side of locos, coaches and wagons, clean points for improved electrical conductivity and loco wheels, commutators, and “untarnishes” metals, like coupling rods of steam locos and diesel shunters. They often feature a propelling action to expose more or less of the fibres depending on the level of abrasiveness you need. a>

      The whole approach is to get the solder to take to the base metal, and any oxide on the metal stops the process, all the flux does is clean with acid whilst the surface is hot, and then keeps air off it till the metal bonds. Thanks for the comment Doilum, I'm not sure about the livery of the wagon, it's quite an old Bachmann product and could be completely fictitious, there might be someone on here who knows though. The picture has been seen before, but this wagon came with a garish orange paint and rub on lettraset transfers. It is also a great tool for accurate and precise cleaning in hard to reach places due to its durable lightweight design. There seems to be a bit of a sheen to both of them so I'm not sure whether to drybrush some track colour or similar or just give them a spray of matt varnish?Great for fine detail cleaning As an ex aircraft fitter I have used these fibre pens to clean aircraft components mainly aluminium for prior to crack testing processes. This 4mm glass fibre pencil has a fast abrasive action and is ideal for wheel cleaning, burnishing, and polishing.

Over the years, I've used this stuff for a number of purposes - and have generally found the medium to be the most useful of the lot - followed by fine (which I've sometimes used for cleaning circuit boards).

      Please note one should take care when using not to run on skin as fine hairs may penetrate causing discomfort. I've rarely found much use for the other grades - but I should add that I've never really done much with whitemetal (so I don't know what grade would be needed for this). Your credit rating may be affected which will make it more difficult or more expensive for you to obtain credit in the future. Remember it is not just the flux, but the way it is used, the metal must be pre-cleaned, the iron spotless, and well tinned, with 60/40 lead solder, even if modern tin based eco solder is used. I bought a 2mm fibreglass brush from e bay and after struggling with a larger one that does make a difference.Read more about the condition New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging is applicable). The propelling action on the glass fibre pen allows more less of the glass fibres to be exposed, depending on the level of abrasiveness you want to achieve. I've never tried using the stuff with tweezers - but I suspect that flat ended pliers (or small square ended ones) might work for this. In my case, I used the things in a job - where I had to prepare steel bars to take strain gauges - and got fed up of splinters.
