This is an Ever-Ready 200M. Originally sported a boar hair-do, which was old and crusty. Handle was in pretty good condition, but needed a little rework (sanding, removing the seam lines off the lower portion of the handle, and polishing).
The pre-restoration pics. . . .
Off to the spa for a bath and initial haircut. . .
Threw on a bib for a flat-top cut. . .
Then its time for surgery.
The original knot was pretty big and elected to open the knot hole to accept a 24mm knot. The Dremel is an excellent tool for expanding and clean-up. . .
Heres the presanding polishing pic. . .with the new wig.
I had already painted the branding, before sanding began.
Postsanding and polishing with new knot installed.
And here it is. . . .after a shampoo and its first lather. The other brush is to provide a visual in the difference between two knot sizes (the black and white brush has a 20mm knot).
Plenty of backbone and very soft. The 24mm knot makes creams and soaps explode!
