    I know this is off topic , BUT does anybody know who stocks "Canning" wire brushe for a bench grinder
    I am after a soft and long wire type for polishing, NOT rust removal

    Far better is to get a linisher and use medium Scotchbrite (green) belts. You can't have too many linishers in your workshop. Once you are familiar with their myriad uses you hardly ever use a rock except to maybe touch up a drill or a turning tool.

    I've got to admit, first I had to google it...

    Blackwoods have what you appear to be after but dont call it a canning wheel.

    Now Im curious as to if you're planning on texturing before polishing or if your going for polishing and what it is....

    Canning

    Basically mate it is this
    I am bluing shotgun barrels and I need a soft wheel to polish of the rust between applications
    I am pretty sure I looked at Blackwoods early in the piece, all too stiff
    I need a wheel with wire about .75mm thich thats about 30thou
    Could you send me a link to look at the blackwoods thing??

    I have got a mate in tthe UK who is trying as well
    He even asked the gun bloke from Antiques roadshow about it, NFG

    Cheers Pete

    PS Cannings are the peole that make them

    right, with you now so you want a brushing wheel...

    I wouldn't be using a full size bench grinding wheel for it Id be going with the ones that mount in a drill and then using a hand held drill but Brushes | Hand Brushes | Wire wheels | Vertex Wheels is most likely to be your best bet if you're not in a hurry.
