Gordon Brush^® designed and built a special wire roller brush which now keeps the entire conveyor belt clean with only one revolution of the belt with the brush in action.
Laser optics are cleaned without scratching by a silk brush Gordon Brush^® developed for the military.
NASA’s space telescope was susceptible to dust getting on its lens after the doors were opened. Gordon Brush^® built the space agency a vacuum brush to dust the inside of the doors and protect the sensitive lens.
