Brustro Greengold Flat brushes are great for thin to wide strokes where you want a lot of paint coverage. The flat brush very closely resembles a wash brush, except it is not quite as thick and the bristles are typically not as rounded on the edges. Flat or rectangular brushes have square, flexible ends and can hold a lot of paint. When used flat, they can make long strokes and are well suited to blending and painting in large areas.   The tip and sides can also be used for more delicate lines and small touches.

The bristles are stiff, with a precise snap that makes them excellent for use with heavy-bodied acrylics and oils. They have long handles that allow artists to work at a distance from the painting surface. EASY CARE & RESHAPE - Simply clean brushes with warm water immediately after use and reshape brush tip.
