I'm building a gate out of 2x4s and latticed lath. What kind of brush do
you use with acrylicpaint? Does it matter? I have many brushes,
different kinds, from the cheapies made in malasia made of boar bristle

varnish, and others. Does it matter?

Use a nylon bristle brush for either latex or oil. Not a cheapo -- go
to a paint store and buy a good one.
