Natural bristle paint brushes specifics and care.
Natural bristle paint brushes are traditionally used for oil-based products. High paint absorption helps with paint spreading. In contact with water, natural bristles become soft which may affect performance. There are situations where pure bristle paint brushes may be used with water-based products, this may be to achieve a desired artistic effect. User discretion and consideration is required when choosing the right tool.
Although great care is taken in selecting materials, as well as in the manufacturing process, we cannot guarantee no bristle loss. Breaking in a new brush is practised by many professional decorators. Natural bristles may also be conditioned by soaking in linseed oil for a few hours. Treating bristles with fabric or hair conditioner may prolong the life of the brush. For perfectly straight bristles wrap the brush in a paper when still wet and leave it to dry naturally.
