Tenax 5" Wire Frankfurt Brush — Stone Texturing & Antiquing Brush

The Tenax 25WIRE05036 is a 5" Frankfurt-mount wire brush for stone texturing and antiquing. Wire bristles produce a deeper, more aggressive texture than diamond brushes — useful for breaking the polished surface and starting the antique workflow on harder granite and engineered stone. Wire Frankfurt brushes sit alongside diamond Frankfurt brushes in a complete antique-finishing wheel set.
