Which Brush is Right for Me?

All brushes are not created equal! Selecting the right brush will help you achieve optimal results and the best finish. Use the following guide to help pick the best type of brush for your application.

• Natural Bristle – Typically made of Ox, Hog and Badger bristles, designed for oil-based paints, stains and varnishes. Not to be cleaned with water or used with latex or water-based coatings as bristles will go limp.
• Synthetic Bristle – may be used for all types of paints but particularly designed for water-based and latex coatings.
• Ox and Badger Hair Bristle – Softest natural bristles, best for creating smoothest finishes. Often blended with White and Black China hog bristles to achieve a good balance of softness and stiffness. Not to be cleaned with water or used with latex or water-based coatings as bristles will go limp.
• White China Bristle – Typically made from natural hog bristle, best for oil-based paint, stains, varnish, urethanes, shellac and lacquer. Yields smoother finish than black China. Not to be cleaned with water or used with latex or water-based coatings as bristles will go limp.
• Black China Bristle – Typically made from natural hog bristle, best for oil-based paint, stains, primers and varnish. More economical than White China Bristles and stiffer bristles to hold more paint but will not yield as smooth a finish. Not to be cleaned with water or used with latex or water-based coatings as bristles will go limp.
