This is my most recent restore of a Fuller Black & Butterscotch. Before and after shots are included. Many thanks to Ernie and TGN for the 22mm silvertip set at about 50mm.

Looks great-- nice work! 
I have a brush from Rubberset that is almost exactly the same that i'm working on right now. As i was cleaning it up i realized that the top and bottom unscrewed from each other, which i thought was pretty cool!
Was this the case for your brush also?

Classic!
Interesting. Are the top and bottom threaded? Photos would be great!

The top and bottom are threaded, but I have no photos showing the threads. I'll see what I can do.
Thanks! Other than a Rubberset 400 and a few other metal brush handles, I've never run across one that was threaded. Then, again, I haven't been checking closely.
Thanks much! That's pretty cool. I'll be checking my stash of vintage brushes for any that are threaded or otherwise may come apart. Should be a real timesaver in restoring those that do. Again, thanks for the follow up!

Use caution when checking for threaded handles. I had one of the bases crack when applying too much pressure. I will be using the top of the handle with a wood base to replace the broken piece.
Point taken-- vintage handles can be fairly fragile.
Looks good dude!
