## Description

Squirrel hair brushes have gained significant popularity in the field of watercolor painting. They are ideal for expressing yourself regardless of who you are. These brushes are highly regarded for their ability to quickly saturate paper with water. Due to their exceptional absorbency, they also excel at effortlessly picking up water and pigment. Carries Color Very Well: The squirrel brush has a high capacity for holding water. They work exceptionally well as mop and wash brushes, although they may not hold a sharp point like sable brushes do. Natural Squirrel Hair: Known for its exceptional softness and absorbency, perfect for holding paint and achieving excellent point precision. It is ideal for mop and wash techniques, illustration, animation, rendering, dusting, and fine lacquer work. Sturdy Wooden Handle: The brush handles are made of natural birch wood, featuring an ergonomic shape and a smooth finish for a comfortable grip. Suitable for any painting temperament, speed, skill level, or style. Even with long-term use, the handles will not bend or break. Durable Metal Ferrule: The ferrule of the brush is specially designed with transparent flexible plastic and tightly wrapped four deep crimps. This deep crimping process compresses the ferrule onto the wooden handle, creating a secure mechanical lock that firmly fastens the ferrule to the handle. Warm tips: - When dry, mop brushes can appear bushy and unshaped. This is quite normal, and once they are loaded with water, they will immediately regain their pointed shape. - Always make sure to let the paintbrush dry completely before storing them. And, as with all brushes, but especially with mop brushes, never leave them soaking in water

Review: Quality, Soft and easy to brush. - This is a mop brushes set. Ideal for wet your watercolor paper or brush some areas to be wet. Carries a lot of water. I like that you can detail with the fine tip this mop brush creates. This is a soft squirrel hair brush. Brittles on its place. You can load your pigment and make your strokes easyly, freely and deliberately. I like it. Professional quality. First time I buy Dugato brand and I can tell you I can trust on it. After use them, wash them very well with conditioner soap, like Masters' and arrange the pointed shape and let them (and all your brushes) lay horizontally until get dry. You need to protect your professional tools for many years of quality use.
Review: well made brush - I love this brush. I use it for watercolors because it holds a lot of water. The brush is well made and has a comfortable handle. The hairs come to a fine point, but basically I use it as a mop brush to put down a wash...
