The Polyvine Flogger Brush is an essential tool for professional decorators and DIY enthusiasts looking to achieve authentic faux finishes. Designed specifically for softening wood grain effects and blending decorative paint, it provides a consistent, high-quality texture that synthetic brushes often lack. While its natural bristles offer superior performance for graining, they do require meticulous cleaning and care to prevent damage to the delicate hair fibers.

Yes, it is suitable for water-based media, but ensure you clean it thoroughly with soap and water immediately after use to prevent paint from drying in the bristles.
Store the brush hanging vertically with the bristles pointing down, or lay it flat on a surface where nothing is pressing against the hair.
Natural bristles have tiny scales on the hair shafts that hold paint and drag it more effectively, creating a more realistic texture for graining.
While it can apply varnish, it is specifically designed for decorative effects. We recommend using a dedicated varnish brush to prevent finish contamination.
Yes, some natural brushes are treated for transit. Gently working the bristles will soften them and prepare them for paint application.
This is often due to loose factory hairs. Gently comb the brush with a wire brush or your fingers before the next use to dislodge any remaining loose bristles.
Wash the brush thoroughly, comb it back into shape, and store it wrapped in heavy paper or a brush keeper that forces the bristles to maintain their original orientation while drying.
Before using your Flogger Brush for the first time, it is recommended to gently 'work' the bristles with your fingers to remove any loose hairs left over from the manufacturing process. The brush is compatible with most water-based and oil-based decorative glazes and paints used in faux finishing.
For care, never leave the brush standing on its bristles in a container, as this will permanently distort the shape of the natural hair. After use, clean the brush thoroughly using the appropriate solvent for the paint medium you used (water for water-based products, mineral spirits for oil-based). Once clean, gently reshape the bristles and hang the brush to dry, ensuring the head does not touch any surface that could bend the fibers.
