Painta Professional Brush - Size 0

Revell Painta Professional - brush size 0

This brush from the Revell professional range is intended for precise work on details. Size 0 is a small detail brush - fine enough for small work, but with enough bristle to hold a reasonable amount of paint so that you do not have to dip after every stroke. The brush is set with quality synthetic bristles that pick up and give off paint evenly and hold the shape of the point well. The triangular handle is comfortable to hold, does not roll off the table and reduces hand fatigue during long sessions. The shape of the point is arranged so that it reaches even the less accessible places on a model.

Use

• Details - instrument panels, belts, tools, handles, buckles, faces and accessories on figures.
• Markings and lettering - small patches, warning stripes, frames and lines where a steady hand is needed.
• Touch-ups - repairs after unmasking, finishing edges and places the airbrush did not reach.
• Applying paint to small areas where spraying would not be worth masking for.
• Working with modeling paints - acrylic and synthetic (enamel) alike.

Who it is for

For modelers, figure builders and collectors who finish a model with a brush and want the paint to land exactly where it should. It is also worth having for those who otherwise spray with an airbrush - a detail brush is essential for painting in the small things. It is useful to have several sizes at hand; size 0 is the all-round choice for ordinary details.

Brush care: never leave it standing soaked in paint or in thinner - the bristles will be permanently deformed. Clean it immediately after work in the matching thinner (acrylics with water or acrylic thinner, enamels with mineral spirits or synthetic thinner), rinse it, squeeze the excess water out between your fingers, smooth the point and let it dry lying flat or point upward. Paint must not dry at the ferrule - that is where a brush is destroyed fastest. Thinners are flammable, so work in a ventilated room.
