Before You Buy

• Sold as a single brush, not a set.
• Interlocked bristle is firm on purpose and needs a little breaking in.
• Do not stand the brush in solvent, as it bends the bristle permanently.

How to Use

1. Load colour on both flat faces against the palette.
2. Use the wide face for broad strokes and the thin edge for lines.
3. Keep the wrist steady so the square tip stays square.
4. Wipe out between colours.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size is this flat brush?
It is a No. 12 in the Oil Techne 2110 series.

How is a flat brush different from a wash brush?
A flat brush is narrow and made for controlled edges and shapes. A wash brush is much wider and made for covering large areas quickly.

Will it hold thick oil paint?
Yes. Interlocked natural bristle is the traditional choice for heavy bodied oil colour.

Can I use it for acrylic?
Yes, though the bristle is firmer than a synthetic and suits thicker acrylic better than washes.
