The Daler Rowney System3 Skyflow Brush is designed for students, hobbyists, and professional artists who require a reliable, versatile tool for covering large surface areas. Its key benefit is the combination of excellent paint retention and responsive snap, making it ideal for thin to medium-flow acrylics, watercolors, and mixed media projects; however, users should note that the 1.5-inch width is tailored more toward washes and broad strokes rather than fine, detailed line work.

While it is designed primarily for acrylics and watercolors, it can be used with oils, though you must clean it with appropriate mediums rather than water.
Yes, its durable construction and consistent performance make it an excellent choice for artists at any skill level.
No, the black shadow aluminium ferrule is securely crimped to minimize shedding.
This model features a short handle, which is designed for close-up control on canvases and paper surfaces.
Store it flat or hanging bristles-down to ensure the shape of the brush head is maintained over time.
Clean the brush with gentle soap and water, then reshape the wet bristles with your fingers and allow them to air dry in a horizontal position.
Use a mild brush soap to gently work the paint out of the base of the bristles, taking care not to push the paint further into the ferrule.
To ensure the longevity of your brush, always rinse the bristles thoroughly with cool, clean water after each use. When working with acrylic paints, ensure the paint does not dry in the ferrule, as this can cause the bristles to splay and permanently lose their shape. For storage, keep the brush lying flat or suspended with the bristles facing downward to prevent moisture from damaging the wooden handle or loosening the ferrule. While the brush is highly compatible with acrylics, watercolors, and mixed media, avoid using it with harsh solvent-based cleaners that may break down the synthetic bonding agent.
