Product Details
A sable shaped brush made of flexible Toray hair. The stiffness of Roubloff Toray synthetic bristles is similar to that of natural Siberian kolinsky. These brushes have sufficient water absorption, wet easily, hold a large amount of material, and retain their shape during use. They are suitable for watercolour, ink and gouache painting.
The sharp edge with elastic bristles responds sensitively to the artist's hand movements, making the brush strokes extremely precise.The dagger brush is a valuable tool in the artist's inventory. Its angled shape and sharp tip allow for easy adjustment of line thickness from very thin to thick, creating expressive, dynamic strokes, drawing long, graceful lines, lettering, ornamental patterns, and fine details. It is also suitable for precise application of paint in small washes.

Care & Maintenance
Watercolor & Gouache Brush Care
Proper watercolor brush care helps maintain the softness and precision of the bristles. After each use, rinse the brush thoroughly with clean water to remove any paint residue. Wash occasionally with mild soap, baby shampoo, or a dedicated brush cleaner, then gently reshape the brush tip.
Allow the brush to dry horizontally at room temperature on a paper towel or cloth. Avoid drying brushes in direct sunlight or near heaters, as heat can damage the bristles and affect the brush shape. Regular cleaning keeps watercolor and gouache brushes flexible and ready for precise painting.
Acrylic Brush Care
To maintain acrylic paint brushes, clean them immediately after use because acrylic paint dries quickly and can damage the bristles. Rinse the brush with warm water and wash it with soap or a brush cleaner to remove paint residue.
Make sure the paint does not dry inside the bristles. If dried paint remains, a special brush cleaning solution may be required. After washing, reshape the brush head and allow it to dry naturally on a flat surface. Proper acrylic brush maintenance helps preserve brush flexibility and painting precision.
Oil Paint Brush Care
For proper oil paint brush care, clean brushes immediately after painting. First rinse the brush in paint thinner such as turpentine or white spirit to dissolve the oil paint. Then wash the brush thoroughly with warm water and soap to remove any remaining residue.
After cleaning, gently reshape the brush and allow it to dry horizontally. Keeping brushes clean prevents hardened paint and helps maintain the brush’s original shape and performance
