YeHong No. 0 Brush from U-STAR is a fine detail brush of size 0. It is meant for small work: instrument panels, the eyes of figures, outlining edges and touch-ups, where tenths of a millimeter count.
Responsibility details are not available.
A fine detail brush of size 0 from the YeHong range by the manufacturer U-STAR. It is a tool for small work, where an ordinary brush already carries too much paint and does not allow a precise touch.
Brush numbering starts at the smallest sizes, and the rule is that the higher the number, the bigger the brush. Size 0 is therefore a small, detail brush, while a size twelve, say, is already a brush for areas. Watch out for markings with a fraction: formats such as 10/0 or 5/0 are finer still than 0. In practice size 0 is a sensible compromise: the point holds enough paint for the stroke not to dry out halfway, and it is still fine enough for real detail.
With a detail brush the technique matters more than the brush itself. Brace your work, resting the edge of your palm on the table or against the model holder, and keep the stroke short, rather in two goes than in one long, uncertain stroke. Take up paint in small amounts and keep checking whether the tip still holds its point; as soon as it starts to splay, rinse it and shape it again. And count on a fine brush being a consumable tool: even with the best care the point wears down in time and has to be replaced.
For figure painters and modelers who finish details by hand with a brush. Thin the paint before work, as thick paint clogs the point and the brush loses its tip. Take the paint on the tip of the bristles only, not along their whole length.
Never dip the bristles as far as the ferrule, as paint dried at the root will ruin the brush and the point will splay beyond recovery. Wash it out immediately after painting: with water for acrylics, with the matching thinner for enamels and lacquers. After washing, shape the point and store the brush bristles upward. Never leave it resting on its bristles at the bottom of a jar of thinner.
