Product Information
Full details
The Purdy Nylox Dale Angled Sash Paint Brush is designed for professional painters and serious DIY enthusiasts who require a smooth, high-quality finish when using latex paints. Its primary benefit is a precision-engineered blend of Nylox and polyester filaments that mimic natural bristles for superior paint pickup and release. While highly versatile for both interior and exterior applications, users should note that its performance is specifically optimized for latex-based coatings rather than oil-based stains or varnishes.

FAQs
Can I use this brush with oil-based paints?
While it is specifically optimized for latex paints, the Nylox/Polyester blend can handle some other coatings, but results are best with water-based latex.
Is this brush suitable for exterior painting?
Yes, its durable construction makes it excellent for exterior siding, doors, and trim work.
How do I best clean the brush after using latex paint?
Wash with warm water and mild soap, ensuring you work the soap deep into the heel of the brush. Rinse until the water runs completely clear.
Why is it called an 'angled sash' brush?
The filaments are cut at an angle to allow the brush to easily reach into tight corners and paint straight lines along edges without a steady hand being the only factor.
What is the benefit of 'flagged' tips?
Flagged tips are split at the ends, which increases the surface area of the bristles, allowing the brush to hold more paint and provide a smoother finish.
Troubleshooting
Filaments are splaying or losing shape
Store the brush in its cardboard keeper after every use and ensure the filaments are combed straight while drying.
Visible brush marks in the finish
Avoid over-brushing the paint. Apply a generous, even coat and allow the paint's leveling agents to smooth the surface.
Paint drying at the base of the filaments
Ensure you only dip the brush up to half the length of the filaments and clean the heel of the brush thoroughly after every session.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure peak performance, dampen the filaments slightly with water before dipping into latex paint to prevent the paint from drying too quickly at the base of the brush. When finished, rinse the brush thoroughly in warm water and use a wire brush comb to remove residual paint trapped near the ferrule. Always store the brush in its original protective keeper to maintain the angled shape of the filaments. This brush is fully compatible with all latex-based interior and exterior paints.
