FAQs

What types of paint can I use with these brushes?

These brushes perform exceptionally well with all modern water-based paints (emulsions, acrylics, water-based glosses). They are also suitable for use with all other types of paint, including oil-based formulations.

How do I clean the brushes after using water-based paint?

Rinse the brushes thoroughly with warm water after use. Work the bristles gently to remove all paint residue. Do not allow paint to dry on the bristles.

How do I clean the brushes after using oil-based paint?

Use the appropriate solvent recommended for your oil-based paint (e.g., white spirit or mineral turpentine) to clean the bristles. Rinse thoroughly afterward.

What does 'tapered filaments' mean for performance?

Tapered filaments are thinner at the tip, which allows for better paint pickup and a smoother, more even lay-off of paint onto the surface, reducing visible brush strokes.

Why is minimizing bristle loss important?

Bristle loss can result in unwanted fibers being left in your paintwork, ruining the finish and requiring extra time for removal. These brushes are designed with resin bonding to prevent this.

What are the sizes of the brushes included in the set?

The set contains three brushes in sizes 25mm (1 inch), 38mm (1.1/2 inches), and 50mm (2 inches).

Can I use these brushes for varnishing?

Yes, these synthetic brushes are suitable for applying varnishes, particularly water-based varnishes, providing a smooth finish.

Troubleshooting

Bristles are splaying or losing shape.

Ensure thorough cleaning after each use and reshape the bristles while damp. Avoid storing heavy objects on top of the brushes.

Paint is not applying smoothly or is streaky.

Clean the brush thoroughly to remove any dried paint or debris. Ensure you are using the appropriate paint for the brush type and consider a second coat if necessary.

Bristles are falling out during painting.

While the resin bonding minimizes this, ensure the ferrule is secure and the bristles are not being excessively forced or scraped against rough surfaces.
