About product

Brush 5 STANDARD (Mirage Hobby)

This is a modeling brush with synthetic bristles, size 5, from the STANDARD range of the Polish maker Mirage Hobby. It is not a kit and not a model, but a tool for painting. Size five is one of the larger working sizes in this range: it takes considerably more paint than the detail numbers, so you cover an area in fewer strokes and the coat has a chance to level out before it starts to dry.

Use

  • Continuous brush coats over larger areas - fuselages, bodies, wings, landing gear plates.
  • Base coats on smaller parts and quick covering with a primer color.
  • Glazes and thinned paints, where a lot of material has to be spread evenly.
  • Applying washes and toning layers over larger areas.
  • Painting diorama groundwork, terrain and the bases of figures.

Size five or size three?

Size 5 is the larger of the pair. Take it wherever the point is coverage - more paint in the brush means fewer strokes, fewer drying edges and a smoother result. For detail it is unsuitable: in tight places it is clumsy and paint easily gets where it does not belong. For fine work, the equipment of figures and touching up, size 3 is the one, with a narrower stroke and better control. Anyone who paints with a brush regularly usually uses both - the five for areas, the three for detail.

Care of the brush

A larger brush soaks up more paint, and all the more important is a thorough wash-out. Clean it immediately after use with a thinner appropriate to the type of paint (water or acrylic thinner with acrylics, solvent thinner with enamels) and make sure no paint has stayed up at the ferrule - that is exactly where it builds up and where it ruins the brush. Do not leave it standing tip down in thinner. Do not press hard on the bristles; a larger size spreads paint without pressure. It dries flat or with the tip upward.

Who it is for

For modelers who brush-paint larger areas and do not want to go over them slowly with a small brush, and as a companion to the detail sizes.

A brush is a tool, not a kit. Paints and thinners are not included in the package. Use thinners in a ventilated space and out of the reach of children.

FAQ

The five is larger - choose it when you need to cover an area: continuous coats, base layers, glazes. For details, the equipment of figures and touching up, size 3 is the one, with a narrower stroke and better control.

A small brush takes little paint, so you have to reload often. The edges of the coat dry in the meantime and the joins show as streaks and strokes. A larger brush covers the area before it starts to dry.

No. This is a modeling brush - a tool for painting models and figures. The package contains neither parts to build nor paints.

Wash it out right after use with a thinner appropriate to the type of paint, do not leave it standing tip down in thinner, do not press on the bristles and dry it flat or with the tip upward. Paint that has dried at the ferrule will ruin the brush for good.
