Application advice
Use brush no. 4 for very delicate finishing work, tight angles and spot touch-ups. No. 8 is perfect for intermediate-sized surfaces such as window frames or thin skirting boards. Reserve no. 12 for slightly larger surfaces still requiring round brush application: finned radiators, bars, decorative cut-outs.
Before first use, remove loose bristles by gently rubbing the tuft between your fingers. Dip the brush in water for water-based paints or in the appropriate solvent for synthetic paints, then squeeze out lightly. After use, clean your brushes immediately and thoroughly with the appropriate product, then hang them bristles-down or store flat to preserve the tuft shape.

Pro tips
On site, always keep a set of round brushes at hand for last-minute finishing touches. Size 8 is particularly versatile for most common touch-ups in Belgium, especially on wooden and PVC frames. Pro tip: lightly dampen the synthetic bristles before first use to improve paint load. For oil painting work, store your brushes in a pot with a layer of linseed oil between quick successive uses; this avoids repeated cleaning and preserves the bristles.
FAQ
Are these brushes suitable for water-based paints?
Yes, the synthetic bristles of these round brushes are perfectly suited to water-based acrylic paints, as well as oil paints and gouache. They offer excellent durability and clean up easily.
Which brush size for fine touch-ups?
For precision retouching and very fine details, use the round brush no. 4. No. 8 is suitable for medium-sized surfaces and corners, whilst no. 12 allows you to cover larger areas whilst maintaining the precision of a round brush.
How do I extend the life of these brushes?
Clean them thoroughly after each use with the appropriate thinner. Never leave brushes soaking vertically with bristles down, as this would permanently deform the bristles. Store flat or suspended after complete drying.
Are synthetic bristles as effective as natural bristles?
For acrylic and water-based paints, synthetic bristles actually offer better performance than natural bristles: they don't swell, retain their shape and stiffness, and resist solvents better. Their durability is also superior with proper maintenance.
