The 3" size gives you faster coverage on wider trim, cabinet doors, siding, and larger flat surfaces where the 2-1/2" would take too many strokes. The Sprig series pairs 100% natural white China bristle with a beavertail hardwood handle -- soft, supple filament that lays down ultra-smooth finishes with oil-based coatings.

• 3" brush width
• 5/8" bristle thickness
• 3-1/8" bristle length
• 100% natural white China bristle (soft, absorbs oil-based paint)
• Flat trim sash configuration
• Natural beavertail hardwood handle
• Round-edge stainless steel ferrule
• Oil-based coatings ONLY -- do NOT use with latex (natural bristle absorbs water and loses its shape)
• Handcrafted in the USA

Best For: Oil-based stains, varnishes, polyurethanes, lacquers, and shellacs on wider woodwork, cabinet doors, siding, and decks. The natural bristle produces a smoother finish than any synthetic when paired with slow-drying oil coatings. NOT compatible with water-based (latex) paints -- use a nylon or Chinex brush for those.
