YOU WILL RECEIVE ONE (1) PROFESSIONAL HORSEHAIR WELT BRUSH BY STAR, SHIPPED BY USPS FIRST CLASS MAIL..... note..... this is an applicator brush, not a stiff cleaning brush. when performing shoe care, make sure to clean the welt strip with some type of scrubber brush, old toothbrush, denture brush. This scrubbing will remove the sediment, gunk, salt residue, and other contaminants that will degrade and eventually deteriorate the threads or seam where the vamp meets the welt area. the application of some type of conditioner or protectant to this area is strongly recommended to protect the area. welders and farmers understand the importance of caring for this specific area and will often apply specialized treatments to the welt like my Atsko brand WELT SEAL protectant. The Welt-Seal product provides superior protection to the delicate welt area, often the first to go on expensive work and farm boots. ....
