Before You Buy

• Sold as a single brush, not a set.
• Natural bristle gives a working point rather than the needle point of a soft liner.
• Reshape the head while it is damp so it dries to a point.

How to Use

1. Thin the colour slightly so it flows off the point.
2. Roll the brush as you pull the stroke to keep the taper.
3. Press down for a wider mark and lift for a thin one.
4. Wipe out between colours.
5. Rinse, reshape to a point and dry flat.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size is this round brush?
It is a No. 4 in the Oil Techne 2010 series.

How is a round brush different from a filbert?
A round brush comes to a point, so it does linework and small detail. A filbert is flat with a curved tip and is made for blending and blocking in.

Is this suitable for fine detail?
It handles ordinary detail well. For hairline work and signatures, a liner brush holds a finer point.

Can I use it with acrylic?
Yes. Rinse it promptly, since acrylic dries hard in the ferrule.
