Controlled Paint Retention and Release
The Starliner brush uses specially selected synthetic fibers designed to retain a useful amount of paint while delivering it smoothly from the brush tip. This helps painters produce longer, more continuous strokes without returning to the palette as frequently.
Controlled paint release is especially helpful when painting armor panels, clothing folds, equipment, faces, trim, and other small model details where consistency is important.
Round No.2 Tip for Detailed Hobby Painting
The Round No.2 profile provides enough capacity for small-area painting while maintaining a pointed shape for accurate placement. It can be used for controlled base colors, edge work, highlights, detail painting, and other precision applications.
Its balance of rebound and firmness helps the tip respond predictably while working on miniatures, figures, scale-model components, and other compact surfaces.
Designed for Water-Based Model Paints
The synthetic PBT fibers are well suited to water-based hobby paints. They provide a durable alternative to natural hair while supporting controlled application and smooth paint flow during detailed brushwork.
For best performance, thin and prepare the paint according to the paint manufacturer's instructions and avoid allowing paint to dry inside the bristles or ferrule.
Comfortable Natural Wood Handle
The wooden shaft provides a comfortable and traditional feel in the hand. Its lightweight construction helps maintain control and reduce fatigue during longer painting sessions.
A brass ferrule supports the brush head and helps provide a stable connection between the bristles and handle.
Brush Care: Clean the brush promptly after use with a cleaner suitable for the paint type. Reshape the tip gently and allow the brush to dry without resting its weight on the bristles. Avoid soaking the wooden handle or allowing dried paint to collect inside the ferrule.
