Frequently Asked Questions

How wide is this wash brush?
The bristle head is 50 mm across.

How is a wash brush different from a flat brush?
A wash brush is much wider and holds far more colour, so it covers large areas in one pass. A flat brush is narrower and made for controlled shapes and edges.

Can I use it with acrylic?
Yes, though natural bristle swells in water over long sessions, so rinse and dry it promptly.

Is it good for varnishing?
Yes. The wide flat head lays varnish evenly across a finished oil painting.
