This brush was designed by Vicky (hence its name: Vic's Filbert) according to her favorite brush shape, bristle material, and overall size of the ferrule and handle. The Filbert brush tip is oval-shaped and has a flat bristle tip. It's well known for its ability to create broad strokes, blend soft edges, and smoothly transition between thick and thin lines. Every aspect of the brush is optimized for hand painting on sneakers, from painting large panels to applying topcoat and being an overall all-rounder, versatile tool in a sneaker customizer's arsenal. To preserve the high-quality synthetic nylon bristles, be sure to wash the brush with warm water and dish soap after each use and avoid allowing leftover paint or topcoat to fully dry on the bristles. Do not submerge in water for prolonged periods of time.
