Apply marine paints, varnishes, and coatings with a clean, smooth finish using this 1″ foam brush.

Application Tips

Stir paint thoroughly before use. Load the foam head by dipping approximately 1/3 of the foam into the coating do not over-saturate. Apply with light, even strokes in one direction to minimize foam compression marks. For varnish, work with the grain of the wood and avoid going back over partially dried areas. For antifouling paint, apply in smooth, overlapping strokes for consistent coverage. Dispose of the brush after use with solvent-based coatings foam brushes are not easily cleaned with solvents and are designed for single-use application.
