| Fingerprint brushes - Squirrel hair brushes [ SAT082 ] |
 |
In powdering fingerprints, a fine quality brush is indispensable. Since stiff hairs can damage papillary ridges, the fingerprint brushes below are made from a type of very soft hairs, commonly known as squirrel hair.
Brushes need to be replaced from time to time, since in use they inevitably absorb greasy substances and begin to pick up too much powder.
The higher the number of the brush, the larger the cross-section of the head. The round brushes are packaged in a plastic tube with caps on each end. Extra sturdy containers can be ordered separately. |

| Zephyr Brush [ SAT157 ] |
|
The Zephyr style brush is made exclusively for fingerprint purposes and is distinctive in most crime scene cases. Shaped to pick up and retain a supply of fingerprint powder this brush is very effective when used with a twirling, rotating motion, especially on flat horizontal surfaces such as counter tops etc.
Every brush is hand made from a thousand fibre bundles each of these being composed of over a hundred individual treated glass filaments.
To ensure softness any coarse fibres have been removed and softness will improve with use. However, do not allow the Zephyr brush to become damp with water, dew or condensed moisture on cold bottles or cans. It is for use with dry powders on dry surfaces. Do not use on greasy surfaces.
