The Alpha Antique Brush is a brush wheel designed to create textured and antique-style finishes on natural and engineered stone surfaces. It is part of Alpha’s lineup of stone finishing tools used by professional fabricators and installers to give countertops and other stonework a distinctive textured appearance. Main Features Connection: Snail lock (SFAT) mount for quick, secure attachment to compatible edge polishing machines, handheld grinders, and sanders. Multiple Grit Options: Available in a range of grits from 36 (coarse) up to 320 (fine) to control the degree of texture or antiquing you want. Material Compatibility: Ideal for engineered stone and quartz surfaces, and can also be used on natural stones such as granite. Max Speed: Rated for up to 4,000 revolutions per minute (RPM), suited for typical stone finishing machines. Finish Type: Designed to remove surface sheen and impart a decorative or brushed finish that highlights texture and reduces polish. How It Works The brush uses durable filament bristles arranged in a wheel form that, when rotated against the stone surface, breaks up high polish and introduces texture. By selecting different grit levels, you can control how coarse or fine the texture appears.
