FAQ

What is the High Finish Pointed Brush Fine best used for? It is ideal for detailed painting tasks such as figures, cockpit controls, aircraft markings, trim, panel details and other precision work where excellent control is required.

How does the Fine brush differ from the Ultra Fine version? The Fine brush has a slightly larger tip that carries more paint, making it better suited to general detail work while still offering excellent precision. The Ultra Fine version is designed for the smallest and most intricate details.

What makes the High Finish series different from standard brushes? The High Finish series uses specially engineered resin bristles that provide excellent paint retention, smooth paint release and superior durability while maintaining a fine, consistent point.

Can I use this brush with acrylic, enamel and lacquer paints? Yes. The synthetic resin bristles are suitable for all common plastic model paints, including Tamiya acrylic, enamel and lacquer products.

How should I care for the brush? Clean it immediately after use with the appropriate thinner or brush cleaner, gently reshape the tip while damp and allow it to dry naturally before storing.

Important Notes

• Clean the brush immediately after each use using the appropriate paint thinner or brush cleaner.
• Do not allow paint to dry in the bristles.
• Reshape the pointed tip after cleaning to maintain maximum precision.
• Store the brush in a dry location with the bristles protected from damage.
• Use separate brushes where practical for different paint types to maximise brush performance.
• Synthetic resin bristles provide excellent durability but should still be handled carefully to preserve the fine point.
