About product

Italeri flat brush size 4 (Italeri)

A flat modeling brush with synthetic hair from Italeri. Size 4 is the largest of this quartet of flat brushes (size 000, 00, 0 and 4), with a wide straight edge for covering larger areas quickly. It serves for painting, not for building the model.

What a flat brush is and what for

A flat brush has a wide straight edge like a spatula and that is what sets it apart from a round one with a tapering point. The straight mark covers areas evenly, such as wings, sides and panels, and does not leave streaks the way a round brush does, while it also manages sharp edges and straight color transitions. With a larger size dry-brushing over extensive areas comes into its own as well: an almost dry brush is run over the side of a tank, for example, and the paint brings out the edges, rivets and wear.

What size 4 is good for

  • larger areas: wings, sides, roofs, decks
  • base coats on smaller models and clear coating
  • dry-brushing large areas (the sides of a tank, large panels)
  • fast even coverage with no streaks

Tips and maintenance

With a larger brush good quality pays off twice over: a poor-quality brush sheds hairs into the paint and quickly loses its straight edge, while a good one holds its shape and lasts. After work wash the brush out immediately (acrylic with water, lacquer and enamel with the matching thinner) and never let paint dry at the ferrule, as with wide hair there is more of it and dried paint at the metal part of the handle ruins the brush. Finally shape the edge and let it dry.

Who it is for

  • modelers painting larger areas and base coats
  • dry-brushing large areas of armor and aircraft models

This is a modeling tool (a brush), not a paint. Paints and thinner are not included in the package.

FAQ

It is the largest brush of this quartet (size 000, 00, 0 and 4). The rule is that the higher the number, the larger the brush, so size 4 has a considerably wider edge than the small sizes and suits areas rather than the finest details.

For even coverage of larger areas with no streaks, base coats on smaller models and clear coating, and above all for dry-brushing large areas, the sides of a tank for example, where it brings out the edges and the wear.

Right after work: acrylic paints with water, lacquers and enamels with the appropriate thinner. With wide hair make sure the paint does not dry at the ferrule, or you will ruin the brush.
