In South Africa they use felt which I find too soft, especially when doing names or writing. I will try the brush after patina. On second thought, I am going to change my order to include the fiber glass tools. I see on website there are refills - what tool do I attach them to.Zetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00532428388287802044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2399080196786066809.post-68011107948357046572011-02-26T16:22:27.447-06:002011-02-26T16:22:27.447-06:00Zett: Are you using the Big Wheel over the suede? ...Zett: Are you using the Big Wheel over the suede? In this project I used the Fiber Glass tool that gives the metal a different burnished look than the Brass Brush (though they are similar). To avoid what you say, try doing the background with any of these 2 tools AFTER the patina and the polish.Magdalena Muldoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06768086486748608825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2399080196786066809.post-19996152284067541242011-02-26T14:47:23.171-06:002011-02-26T14:47:23.171-06:00I agree with Wendy, your work is absolutely PERFEC...I agree with Wendy, your work is absolutely PERFECT!! I do not get the same result with the big wheel or the burnished look with the wire brush. The metal polish seem to "shine" my burnished look.Zetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00532428388287802044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2399080196786066809.post-41406349832798490872011-02-22T20:34:35.601-06:002011-02-22T20:34:35.601-06:00Wendy just keep practicing and I promise you'l...Wendy just keep practicing and I promise you'll get better each day!!!Magdalena Muldoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06768086486748608825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2399080196786066809.post-11609256174221224902011-02-22T20:12:34.478-06:002011-02-22T20:12:34.478-06:00This so fabulous!!!
