Yes, they can be used with oil-based paints, provided you clean the bristles thoroughly with the correct solvent immediately after use.
While durable for hobby use, these are best suited for DIY and craft projects rather than intensive professional daily use.
Always wash them thoroughly, dry them gently, and store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
The polypropylene handles are durable and resistant to most common paint thinners and cleaning agents.
The set includes a 12mm brush, which is ideal for fine detail work.
Ensure you have thoroughly cleaned out loose bristles before the first use and avoid pressing too hard against sharp edges.
Check if the paint is too thick and thin it slightly, or reduce the pressure applied to the brush during application.
Ensure thorough cleaning at the base of the ferrule where paint can accumulate, preventing it from hardening.
Before the first use, gently flex the bristles to remove any loose hair from the manufacturing process. These brushes are compatible with most standard water-based paints and varnishes. After use, rinse immediately in warm soapy water if using water-based paint, or use the appropriate solvent if using oil-based products. Always hang the brushes or store them flat to preserve the shape of the bristles and ensure the polypropylene handle remains stable. Avoid leaving the brushes sitting in a water container for long periods, as this can cause the bristles to deform.
