This universal paintbrush made with Chinese hog bristles can be used for all types of painting work on basic and coarse substrates but is especially great for large area coverage in oils and acrylics as well as lacquers, varnishes, wood imitation agents (veining), glazes and primers.

The best and most well-known hog bristles come from China and Russia. They are distinguished by their robust structure, excellent elasticity and high degree of resilience. Bristles have a rougher texture than natural hair and the tips of the individual strands end in a so-called "flag", which means it divides there into many thin ends. This "flag" contributes significantly to the ability of a brush to yield a more even application without leaving grooves.
