I think i need a metal brush for cleaning dirt and wax before a fresh wax and for buffing after wax. Should I go straight to the copper brush or is there some advantage to the nylon/copper brush? Can someone explain the uses and benefits of all three (nylon, nylon/copper, copper)? I want a good go to brush with out having to buy 2 or 3 different ones.

You don't need 3 brushes, it is possible to make it work on one. 3 brushes are going to be faster, copper lightly before you wax to open your structure, remove old wax, and make the base more receptive to wax. Then wax, then scrape. When you scrape use a few passes with the copper, then nylon, and a final polish with horse hair. If you were to limit me to one brush, I would take nylon.
