Paint Brush Set FAQs

Which brush set is best for acrylic painting?
Synthetic or firm bristle sets containing rounds, flats and filberts provide a versatile starting selection for acrylic painting.

Which brushes are suitable for watercolour and gouache?
Soft synthetic or natural hair brushes with good water holding capacity are suited to watercolour and gouache. Round brushes are useful for washes and detail, while flats cover broader areas.

Are paint brush sets suitable for beginners?
Yes. A mixed brush set gives beginners several shapes and sizes to explore without selecting every brush individually. Sets are also useful for students, classrooms and travel kits.

How should artist brushes be cleaned?
Rinse water based paint before it dries and use an appropriate brush cleaner for oil paint. Reshape the bristles and allow brushes to dry without resting on their tips.
