About Applicators:

The most important part of a paint brush is the working
end. Performance is based on the engineering of the filament, which you can’t
see but can definitely experience.

The filament and how it is finished or tipped affects the
feel of the brush and the results you get. Every company guards their
proprietary tipping methods, because they’re a big part of what makes each
brand different.

Finishing is an ever-changing technology that top
manufacturers strive to master in order to provide the best performance in
today’s coatings.

Tapered filament helps paint flow for better coverage. It
“pumps the paint” out and down to the surface. It also gives shape to the brush
for precise cutting-in. Look at the brush edge-wise. If it comes to a point, it
also taper and will provide more control.

Untapered or level filament reduces the price of the
brush, but it also sacrifices capacity, coverage, and control. It won’t release
paint like tapered filament. If the thickness of a brush feels the same from
base to tip, it is untapered. It lacks the performance of a brush with tapered
filaments.

Natural bristle is the best choice for oil-based paints,
varnishes, shellac, alkyd enamels, oil stains, and oil-based polyurethanes.

The highest quality comes from mainland China. It has
the softest natural tipping and flexibility. Provide the smoothest finish with
virtually no brush marks.

Bristle is not recommended for latex or acrylic paints
because it will absorb up to 40 percent of its own weight in water, causing it
to flare or become too soft to paint effectively. Also, rough surfaces will
break the tips off natural bristle so it will no longer provide that smooth,
glass-like finish.

Nylon is five times more durable than bristle, so it’s
best to choose a synthetic brush for paint rough surfaces—even when using
oil-based paints.
