    Blanco Brushes

    Was there ever any "official" brush in the Britishicon army to apply Blanco and then brush off the surplus dust etc? Looking on the web there seems to be a variety of different brushes used to perform this task with the Imperial War Museum showing the pair of brushes below, titled brush (blanco). These 2 brushes appear very similar to the pair of brushes that I have set aside for blanco, however, they do appear to be just the generic British army clothes/boot-polishing bristle brush.
