FAQs

What types of coatings can I use these brushes with?

These brushes are ideal for bitumen, tar, and resin coatings. They are also suitable for other viscous paints and sealants used on surfaces like wood, asphalt, and roofing materials.

Are these brushes suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, they are designed for outdoor projects like roofing, decking, and asphalt repair.

How do I clean the brush heads after use?

Clean the bristles with a solvent appropriate for the coating you applied. Refer to the coating's manufacturer instructions for the best cleaning agent. Ensure they are dried thoroughly before storage.

What is the main advantage of the angled brush head?

The angled design allows for better surface contact and easier application in hard-to-reach areas, ensuring more complete and even coverage.

Can I use these replacement heads with any handle?

These are designed to fit standard tar brush handles. It is recommended to check the fitting or thread size against your existing handle for compatibility.

What does the 'soft bristle' designation mean for application?

Soft bristles are gentler on surfaces and allow for a smoother, more controlled application of viscous materials, reducing the risk of streaks or unevenness. They also help minimize drips.

Troubleshooting

Bristles are splayed or damaged

Ensure proper cleaning and storage after each use. Avoid aggressive scrubbing that can deform bristles.

Uneven coating application

Check that the brush head is securely attached to the handle and that bristles are clean and free from hardened material. Ensure the coating is at the appropriate temperature and viscosity for application.

Brush head not fitting handle

Verify the compatibility of the brush head thread/fitting with your specific handle. Newman and Cole offers a long-handled version if a compatible handle is unavailable.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Soft bristles ensure a smooth, non-abrasive application.
  • Angled head design improves accessibility and coverage.
  • Natural bristles help control drips and reduce waste.
  • Suitable for multiple coating applications.
  • Comes in a convenient pack of two.

Cons

  • Requires a compatible handle, sold separately.
  • Bristles may require cleaning after each use for longevity.
  • Not suitable for very thick, heavy-duty adhesives that may require stiffer bristles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are replacement brush heads and must be attached to a compatible handle. Ensure the handle's attachment mechanism securely fastens the head.

Compatibility: Designed to fit standard tar brush handles. Verify the diameter and threading of your existing handle matches common specifications for brush heads.

Care: After each use, clean the bristles thoroughly with a suitable solvent (refer to the coating's safety data sheet for recommendations). Allow the brush head to dry completely before storing. Store in a dry, protected area to maintain bristle integrity.
