Carbon Products of Canada, Inc. offers a unique service called a "brush survey" which can help make brush identification and purchasing a lot easier.
How it works:

Recommendations are made by the Helwig technical staff to help maximize brush and equipment performance. All information is listed in a reference book with unique "reorder part numbers" (i.e. stores or bin number for each brush and corresponding application).
