ECLIPSE SHORT FILBERTS BRUSH is a synthetic mongoose which is stiffer than sable, yet softer than bristle.
The oval end can be used to both make sweeping strokes but also fine lines when held vertically.
This long filbert has extra length as requested, allowing more flexibility. It should also allow you to keep the paint away from the ferrule of the brush, which in theory should make it easier to clean.
HOW TO CLEAN THE BRUSH
ACRYLIC BRUSH
You must not let the Acrylic paint dry on your brush as this is really difficult to get out. Grab a rag or kitchen towel and wipe away any excess paint from the brush this will make the washing process faster and easier. Thoroughly rinse the brush with water and wipe the brush in your palm to get the paint out. You can use soap to speed this process and condition your brushes.
OIL BRUSH
Start with wiping your brushes on a rag or paper towel. You should then wash them thoroughly with a good soap. To clean them thoroughly you can use a dish soap. Don’t endorse the use of mineral spirits or solvents. They are a known brush killer. Oil cleans oil, so safflower, rapeseed & linseed oils should work too.
