Connoisseur Pure Synthetic Bristle Brushes feature a premium quality, heavy duty synthetic bristle, that will endure the heaviest paints and solvents. Designed to accommodate oil and acrylic color straight from the tube, from thick to thin body consistencies. The interlocking fibers mimic the makeup of natural hog bristles, however, the synthetic filaments are sturdier than nylon with the additional advantage of a better paint holding capacity.
