PRINCETON Catalyst Synthetic Brush with Long Handle
PRINCETON Catalyst Polytip artist brushes are premium synthetic brushes with long handles, designed specifically for painting with acrylics and oils and working with mediums or gels. Their standout feature is the Polytip synthetic fibers, where each individual bristle is split into several tips. This lets the brush pick up an exceptionally large amount of paint and deliver a smooth, precise stroke. The bristles are very strong and flexible, and retain their shape even when in contact with water.

Use and care
Thanks to its strength and flexibility, the brush easily moves even very thick acrylic and oil paints or gels, while the long handle provides the necessary distance when painting at an easel. After painting, rinse the brush with water (for oil paints, first use a suitable thinner), gently reshape the tip, and let it dry in a horizontal position.
