FAQs

Are these brushes suitable for oil-based paints?

While the synthetic filaments are durable, they are optimized for water-based coatings. Check the paint manufacturer's recommendation for synthetic brushes before using with heavy solvent-based products.

Can I use these for exterior painting?

Yes, they can be used for exterior projects provided the paint type is compatible, but be sure to clean them thoroughly to prevent debris from hardening in the filaments.

What is the best way to clean these brushes?

Use warm, soapy water and gently massage the bristles until the water runs clear. Rinse thoroughly and reshape.

Do I need to soak the brushes before use?

No, soaking is generally not necessary and can damage the bond between the handle and the ferrule.

How long will these brushes last?

With proper cleaning and storage after every use, these professional-grade brushes can last for many projects.

Troubleshooting

Visible bristle shedding

Ensure you are not pressing too hard into the surface. Gently flick the brush before first use to remove loose bristles.

Brush marks appearing on the finish

Ensure the brush is not overloaded with paint and try maintaining a consistent angle while applying pressure.

Bristles losing their tapered shape

After washing, use a brush keeper or the original packaging to hold the bristles in the correct shape while drying.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Synthetic filaments are durable and easy to clean
  • Ergonomic design allows for extended comfortable use

Cons

  • Limited to three brush sizes

  • Requires proper care to maintain the tapered tip integrity

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Axus Decor brushes, follow these steps:

  1. Preparation: Before the first use, lightly flex the bristles to remove any loose factory dust.
  2. Compatibility: These brushes are primarily designed for water-based emulsion and acrylic paints.
  3. Cleaning: Immediately after use, wash the bristles in warm, soapy water. Use a brush comb if necessary to ensure paint is removed from the heel of the brush.
  4. Drying & Storage: Gently shake off excess water and reshape the bristles with your fingers. Store the brushes hanging or lying flat to maintain their tapered shape; never store them resting on their bristles, as this will cause permanent distortion.
