Stiff Synthetic Filbert Brushes

Stiff Synthetic Filbert Brushes – 95KF (Art Basics)

This synthetic brush has a longer life than white natural bristle brush and keeps its original shape consistently. This hair is specially processed to resist strong solvents without destroying the texture and fibre of the filament. The rounded edge on the filbert shape make the brush ideal for soft edge effects, such as natural forms. Excellent for oil and acrylic painting. Long handle.

These Stiff Synethic Brushes are ideal for painting with heavy body acrylics or oils.  The excellent stiffness and durability of these brushes mean they can really push the paint around.

The special synthetic fibres in the bristles resist hair loss and the resilient stiff bristles interlock to snap straight back into shape even when creating points or edges, offering the user precision and control. These Stiff Synthetic Bright Brushes can also hold a large amount of paint whilst still maintaining a firm line with each brush stroke.

These Stiff Synthetic Brushes have unmatched durability for a synthetic brush, making them one of the finest handmade synthetic brushes possible. They are a stiff and resilient synthetic brush that holds shape well, and is soft yet firm, with excellent control.  They have an incredible feel and spring for unmatched precision and control, and their finely tapered hairs interlock to keep a flawlessly sharp point or edge. The special synthetic bristle fiber resists splaying when used with solvents, and the hairs keep their tight shape longer than any other synthetic hairs.
