With highly elastic filaments, unrivalled shape retention, and super soft tips you'll achieve streak-free results every time. Made with grade 304 stainless steel ferrules, the Silk Touch Ultra range are extremely resistant to corrosion and the laser-etched wooden handle makes for a comfortable, secure grip. Hydrophobic and oil-repelling, they make cleaning up easy. Available 1 inch, 1.5 inches, 2 inch and 2.5 inches. NEXT-GENERATION BRUSH: The Silk Touch Ultra Cutter brush is a collection of the world's top-quality filaments that provide an unmatched brushing experience. It's ideal for cutting between the wall and ceiling or between the wall and skirting due to the brush's angled design. PREMIUM HANDLE: Our brush features a premium handle made from unvarnished birchwood, which makes it sustainable. The wood is sourced from responsibly managed forests. Also, the handle is laser-etched, providing an additional layer of slip resistance for a comfortable and secure grip. HIGH-QUALITY FILAMENTS: This brush features hydrophobic and oil-repellent filaments that prevent paint absorption. Instead, they hold the paint on their surface, which results in smoother and more even coverage. They also maintain their rigidity, ensuring the effective distribution of solids in any coating. ADVANCE TIP TREATMENT: The brush's filaments undergo an advanced chemical tip treatment, which softens and thins their tips, resulting in a streak-free finish. The tips are split into multiple fine points, which maximizes surface area for high paint pick-up. These tips provide precise control in retaining & releasing paint only as commanded. EASY TO CLEAN & MAINTAIN: Rinse our paintbrush with water, and it will be ready for your next project. The brush returns to its original shape, wash after wash, ensuring reliable performance and longevity. The brush is compatible with brush storage boxes, making it easy to keep it organized and in good condition.
The Axus Decor Silk Touch Ultra Angled Brush is designed for both DIY enthusiasts and professional painters looking for a superior cutting-in experience. Its angled design and ultra-soft, synthetic bristles deliver streak-free results, making it ideal for achieving clean lines. A key benefit is the brush's ability to hold and release paint efficiently, ensuring even coverage. However, optimal results depend on proper cleaning and maintenance.
