The Flat Lacquer Brush – Mixed Hair is a specialist flat brush designed for applying lacquer, French polish, varnish and other wood finishing products. Its flat shape makes it particularly useful when working across furniture, panels, mouldings and other surfaces where an even application is important.
A good quality finishing brush is an essential tool for furniture restoration and traditional wood finishing. The flat design allows the product to be spread evenly across the surface while helping you work neatly along the grain.
Available in a range of sizes, this mixed-hair lacquer brush is suitable for both smaller restoration projects and larger areas requiring a wider brush.
The brush is suitable for applying a range of liquid wood finishing products, including:
Its flat profile makes it particularly useful when an even, controlled coat is required across a flat or reasonably broad surface.
A quality flat brush can be useful when applying suitable French polish and wood finishing products, particularly on smaller furniture components, carved areas and surfaces where a controlled brush application is preferred.
When applying French polish or other finishes, work with the grain of the wood and avoid applying excessively heavy coats. The aim is to achieve an even finish rather than leaving excess product sitting on the surface.
For example, Liberon Easy French Polish recommends using a good quality flat lacquer brush and applying thin coats with the grain of the wood.
The Flat Lacquer Brush is also useful for applying suitable lacquers and varnishes during furniture restoration and finishing work.
For the best result, ensure the surface is properly prepared and free from dust before application. Apply the product evenly and avoid repeatedly brushing over areas once the finish has started to dry.
Always follow the application instructions for the particular lacquer, varnish or finishing product being used.
For best results, always follow the specific application instructions supplied with the product being used.
Clean the Flat Lacquer Brush immediately after use. The correct cleaning method will depend on the type of lacquer, French polish, varnish or other finish that has been applied.
For example, with French Polish you clean brushes with methylated spirits. Other products may require a different solvent or brush cleaner, so always check the instructions for the finish being used.
Do not allow finishing products to dry in the brush, as hardened residue can affect the bristles and make the brush more difficult to use effectively.
