Winton Hog Brushes have been developed for use with Winton Oil Colour, yet, can also be used with all other oils, alkyds and acrylic colours. The brushes are developed from good quality Chinese hog bristles and is hand-set into seamless corrosion-resistant ferrules. The solid wood handles have a green stained finish with five coats of lacquer which provide protection along with a smooth finish for ease of use. The natural curve of the hog bristle produces a resilient brush which retains its ‘turned in' shape even after heavy use. The Long Flat Brush features a long flat head which is good for blending, glazing or covering large areas. This brush is made to the same specifications as the Short Flat/Bright but with a longer bristle length for greater spring and freer marks. This brush style is often used with more fluid colour.
