This 1-inch oval synthetic brush from ProDec is designed for DIY enthusiasts and professionals tackling water-based paints, woodstains, and varnishes on intricate surfaces. Its key benefit is achieving an ultra-smooth, effortless finish, especially on contoured areas like skirting boards. A potential caveat is its small size, making it best suited for detailed work and touch-ups rather than large surface coverage.

The oval head profile is designed to easily mould around contoured and curved surfaces, such as skirting boards and architraves, providing a more efficient and even paint application on these detailed areas.
This brush is primarily designed for water-based paints like emulsions, gloss, satin, woodstains, and varnishes. While it might be used with some oil-based products, synthetic filaments are generally best suited for water-based formulations.
Utilize the brush's Shard Filaments for ultra-smooth paint release. Apply paint with light, consistent pressure and avoid overloading the brush. Clean the brush thoroughly after each use to maintain its performance.
Form Recovery Technology helps the brush filaments maintain their original shape, even after washing. This ensures the brush performs consistently over time and allows for sharp, straight lines.
The seamless ferrule prevents paint or water from collecting inside the brush. This avoids the issue of watery streaks appearing on your next coat of paint, leading to a cleaner finish.
No, the 1-inch (25mm) size is best suited for small jobs, touch-up work, and painting intricate details or small areas. For larger surfaces, a wider brush would be more appropriate.
After cleaning and reshaping the filaments, allow the brush to air dry completely. Store it flat or hanging, ensuring the bristles are not pressed down, to maintain its shape.
Ensure the brush is clean and free from dried paint. Check that the ferrule is not blocked. Apply paint with even, consistent strokes and avoid overloading the brush.
Clean the brush thoroughly and reshape the filaments while wet. Allow it to air dry completely, ideally hanging or lying flat. Form Recovery Technology helps maintain shape, but improper cleaning or storage can affect this.
Ensure the brush is suitable for the paint type. For water-based paints, check for any blockages in the filaments. Clean the brush if it has been used previously and not washed correctly.
Setup: The brush is ready to use straight out of the packaging. For optimal results, lightly moisten the filaments with water before your first use with water-based paints.
Compatibility: Ideal for water-based paints including emulsions (matt, silk, eggshell), gloss, and satin finishes, as well as woodstains and varnishes. It is not recommended for heavy-duty oil-based paints.
Care: Clean the brush immediately after each use. Rinse thoroughly with water until all paint is removed. Gently squeeze out excess water and reshape the filaments. Allow the brush to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area, preferably hanging or lying flat to prevent deformation. Avoid storing the brush with the filaments pressed down.
