We offer a variety of brushes at our store located at 1724 S MacArthur Blvd in Springfield, Illinois.
The right paintbrush can make all the difference! Brushes vary from size, bristle composition, and end tips. The first thing to consider is the size of your brush. A simple rule of thumb is to remember a 1 to 2-inch brush is used on small trims and windows. A 3-inch brush is used for cabinet doors. Then a 4-inch brush is used for large flat surfaces. Next is the bristle composition, what the brush nylons are made of will dictate what paint you can use. There are three different styles: natural, blended, and polyester blends. When doing the finishing work in your home, the last thing to consider is the ends of your brushes. The first end is a square trim; this brush is used for applying paint on large flat surfaces. Next is an angled brush that is used to paint window trim. The last brush end is a chisel brush, commonly used in the corners to ensure the trim gets covered.
