Detailed Product Description
This 50mm (2") mixed-bristle brush combines natural and synthetic technologies for professional oil-based coating application. The strategic blend of pure bristles and advanced filaments creates capillary action for exceptional paint pickup, while the beavertail hardwood handle provides perfect balance during precision work. Stainless steel ferrule construction ensures durability against solvents. Ideal for trim work, doors, and furniture where smooth, streak-free finishes with oil-based products are essential.
Direction for Use
Begin by removing loose bristles by tapping the handle and pre-condition with an appropriate solvent such as mineral spirits or turpentine. Load the brush by dipping the lower 1/3 of the bristle length into the paint and gently press against the container wall to unload excess. Maintain a 45° angle to the surface during application, using long, even strokes in the direction of the grain, and reload frequently to maintain a wet edge. For cleaning, work solvent through the bristles until the paint dissolves, wash with soapy warm water, rinse thoroughly, and reshape the bristles. Store the brush wrapped in its original paper keeper, either flat or hanging vertically.

Product Warnings
Wear EN 166-certified goggles and EN 374-rated gloves. Use in well-ventilated areas and avoid skin contact with solvents. Never soak the wooden handle. Clean immediately after use, as dried oil paint damages bristles. Do not use near open flames. Store away from direct heat sources above 50°C.
