    Looking for a leather brush

    Looking for a nice leather brush, I see these:

    Natural Horse Hair $9.99


    Tampico bristles, $3.99


    Other suggestions?

    I have the Tampico brush. To be honest I don`t use it very often. I find myself using a MF towel or pad instead. Just personal preference I think.

    I use the Swissvax brush looks like this


    the bristles are soft enough that they don`t scratch the leather but siff enough so you can get a good scrub.

    I have one that looks just like that I got many years ago from Ebay. But it`s not from swissvax.
    AutopiaForums is the place to be.

    I use the horse hair brush you use to polish your shoes, its uber soft and uber cheap. Works really well too when I use Leatherique.

    I wondered whether I really needed one but always looking for a "cart stuffer" to get over a minimum. I have always used a microfiber or a terry applicator but the best way to loosen crude first.
