tin says to use a synthetic brush
I'm using some Ronseal diamond hard satin clear 'water based' varnish on a
table top. It says on the tin to use a *synthetic filament * brush, which is annoying, since all my brushes are bristle. Would using a synthetic brush make any noticeable difference to the final finish? Anyone know why they would recommend a synthetic brush please? |

Anyone know why they would recommend a synthetic brush please? YES! use a synthetic brush with a water based product. You wake up in the morning and your hair is wild and wooly, you jump in the shower and wet you hair down and it become limp. Water based products make you natural bristle brushes limp also. Also, don't buy a cheap synthetic. Look for Purdy, Lindser, Wooster, etc. |

I don't suppose the manufacturer would know anything about their product, huh? But it isn't only Ronseal, synthetic bristle brushes work _much_ better w/ water-based finishes owing to the tendency of water to soften natural bristle. If you're at all interested in a quality finish, follow the recommendation and use a good quality brush, not a 50-cent cheapie. -- |
