About product

1 SYNTHETIC FLAT BRUSH - a small flat modeling brush, size 1 (AMMO of Mig Jimenez)

Take note, this is not a kit, it is a working tool. This flat brush from AMMO of Mig Jimenez in size 1 has the same straight-cut shape as its larger siblings but a markedly narrower footprint. The fiber is synthetic and springy.

When size 4 is already too much and you need size 1

A large flat brush is fast, but on a small part it becomes a coarse tool: it goes over the edge of a hatch, carries paint into the engraving next door and, when drybrushing, colors a whole panel instead of one edge. Size 1 does the same thing on a small scale: it keeps a straight stroke on an area the size of a fingernail, outlines an individual hatch or cover and, when drybrushing, picks out only the detail you want. The price of that precision is a lower paint capacity: on large panels you will be painting for a long time and will leave transitions behind.

Use

  • Small areas and parts: hatches, covers, instrument panels, tools on fenders, small parts of figures.
  • Short straight edges and lips, where a clean sharp stroke without overrun is needed.
  • Fine drybrushing on small parts: load a minimum of paint, wipe it on paper and pass lightly over the edges of a detail.
  • Targeted application of a wash or filter to one panel or part only.
  • Spot highlighting of chipping and wear on projections and corners.

Synthetic fiber and the chemistry of paints

The manufacturer gives the fiber as resistant to solvents and usable with acrylic, enamel and oil paints. That is the main reason to reach for synthetic fiber for washes, varnishes and drybrushing: aggressive thinners gradually dry out and break natural hair.

Care of the brush

  • Clean it right after work with the thinner that belongs to the paint you used.
  • Do not leave the brush standing tip down in thinner or in water.
  • Do not press on the bristles, because in a small size they splay especially quickly.
  • Dry it lying flat or with the bristles up.

Who it is for

For modelers who already have a large flat brush for areas and are missing the same thing for detail: hatches, small edges and fine drybrushing on the small parts of figures, aircraft and vehicles.

Paints, thinners and the model are not included in the package. When working with thinners and varnishes, ventilate and protect your skin.

FAQ

The shape is the same, the footprint is much narrower. Size 4 is for areas and large edges, size 1 for small areas, individual hatches and fine drybrushing, where a larger brush would go over the edge.

It would work, but we do not recommend it, because it holds little paint, so visible transitions appear and the work takes a long time. Reach for a larger size on big areas.

No. Flat brushes lay down a straight wide stroke. A liner serves for long thin lines and an angled brush for working in corners and along edges.

Yes, the fiber is synthetic and the manufacturer gives it as resistant to solvents, with acrylics, enamels and oils. Always clean it right after use with the matching thinner, though.
