FAQs
Can I use these brushes for oil-based paints?
While they are optimized for water-based paints, they can be used for oil-based applications, but ensure you use the appropriate solvent for cleanup immediately after use.
What is included in the 5-pack?
The set includes 5 brushes of assorted sizes to help you handle both detail work and large surface coverage.
How should I store these brushes between uses?
Always clean them thoroughly, reshape the bristles, and store them in a cool, dry place. Avoid resting them on their bristles.
Are these brushes suitable for textured walls?
Yes, the varying sizes allow you to work the paint into textured crevices effectively, though a roller may be more efficient for very large, heavily textured areas.
Can I use these for staining wood furniture?
Yes, the smaller brushes in the set are well-suited for applying wood stain to furniture or detailed trim work.
Troubleshooting
Bristles are shedding during use
Before initial use, gently tug on the dry bristles to remove any loose strands or rinse and spin the brush to secure the hair fibers.
Paint is streaking or leaving brush marks
Ensure the brush is not overloaded with paint and try using longer, consistent strokes rather than pressing too hard against the surface.
Bristles have become stiff or hardened
Soak the brush in a dedicated paint brush cleaner or warm, soapy water for one hour, then gently comb the bristles to remove dried residue.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Lynwood brushes, always prime them by lightly dampening the bristles with water before dipping into water-based paints. Compatibility extends to most standard latex and acrylic interior wall paints. After use, rinse the brushes thoroughly in warm, soapy water until the run-off is clear. Gently reshape the bristles while damp and hang them or store them flat in a dry area to prevent the bristles from curling or losing their form. Avoid leaving the brushes sitting in a bucket of water for extended periods, as this can weaken the adhesive holding the bristles in the ferrule.
