      These brushes are not designed for a high quality finish. Please consider our Trylon brushes for the best and smoothest results. Thanks,

        Answer This Question

        This brush is not recommended for use with oil based paints. A natural bristle brush or a bristle blend will give you better results with those types of coatings. Thanks,

            Answer This Question

            Technically you can use this brush but baseboards are usually painted with a higher gloss paint, and this is not the best brush for those paints. For the best results on this type of project, use a brush like Trylon, which gives great results in higher gloss paints. Thanks,

                      It’s reusable as long as you clean it after using it.

                        I wouldn't reuse it

                        you can reuse it if you want to cut off bristles after cleaning. they bristles do curl and split extensively.

                        The recommendation is for one-time use. This is a very basic, entry-level quality brush and as such will stand up to repeated uses and cleanings. Individual experience will vary based on how hard the brush is used and how thoroughly it is cleaned afterwards. Thanks,

                          I wash it and reuse it. Works fine so far

                            Use this on an area where mold was growing near my HVAC unit. Use a layer of the kills mold and mildew and repainted the wall. Looks great.

                              I took it upon myself to change the color and repaint the entire exterior trim on my house. I used this single brush for almost all of it and I am pleased with the results. I used two coats and the brush held up for all of it. The fibers stayed in place and the edge kept its shape which is important for hand brushed edges to follow the irregular putty line.

                              Absolute overpriced garbage.
                              Bought to paint a cement block foundation and immediately it started shedding bristles. A few minutes in and a clump of bristles had worked itself down into the ferrule. A few more minutes of painting and a clump of bristles came out of the ferrule entirely. I don't know in what world a disposable brush is five dollars. I would have been better off buying a brush at a dollar store.

                                Just the insert was painted... not the wall. This is a great UTILITY brush... It applies paint well. Smoothing and flow are more of a paint issue. If you are brushing rough surfaces you may notice a few bristles falling out, or the handle getting a little loose as it breaks in. Nothing major... Remember... This is an inexpensive paint brush... not a family heirloom.
