Green & White Ever-Ready

Would you let us know what rubbing compound and what polishing compound? Need all the help I can get at this point!

These are the two that I use. I don't think the brand makes a big difference - just look for them at autoparts stores/sections.

So, you say the process is as follows;

1. Use sand paper - 1500 grit to 'sand the handles.

2. Then use the Rubbing Compund.

3. Then use the Polishing Compand.

Q. Who many 'man-hours' were needed to obtain the effect of your Brush?

That is one sweet looking brush. I'm afraid that this post has triggered another episode of AD ... Got to find me a nice NCSU red and white Ever Ready to restore. I have a nice knot on hand that has been looking for a home. Looks like it's time for a trip to the flea market.

Doesn't matter how much I love my school. I will not be using a purple and white brush. blech.

As A Northwestern Wildcat, born and raised in the Lansing-area with a soft spot for Sparty, I love that brush. If I could two similar ones (green and white for b-ball season and purple and white for footbll season) I think I'd be in heaven.

The process is 600grit -> 800grit -> 1200grit -> 1500grit -> Rubbing Compound -> Polishing Compound -> Maas Polish -> Flitz Polish

I would say that somewhere between 1 to 2 hours working should get the finish there.
