Texturing or brushing surfaces (video)

holz-buersten

Carpenter Valentin enjoys brushing beautiful wooden surfaces to give them a special character and a distinctive look. In addition, the surfaces become very robust and often simply fascinating.

TIP: Use hashtag brushes for your experience or question about structuring surfaces.

In this video we explain what brushing, or as it is called in Austria "Birschtln", does, how to create the surfaces and which tools you need.

Generally, an angle grinder with a decent wire brush is sufficient for small surfaces. If you want to do it more professionally, a polishing machine (which has a lot of power) with nylon-tipped round brushes or a real brushing machine is also excellent.
