Cottam Brush Economy Paint Brush – 1.5in (PPB00140)

Description

Genuine Cottam Brush · Part no. PPB00140

A 1.5in Cottam economy paint brush with pure black bristle in a black painted wooden handle. It is a throwaway brush for small car and garage jobs: brushing paint onto brackets, edges and small panels, dabbing on rust treatment or underseal, or touching in around trim where a wider brush would smear.

Good to know

• Is 1.5in the right width? It suits narrow work such as brackets, wheel arch lips and cutting in along an edge; for broad flat areas a wider brush gets it done faster.
• Which paints suit black bristle? Natural bristle works with solvent-based paints like metal paint and underseal; water-based paint goes on better with a synthetic brush.
• How do I stop bristles in the paint? Flick and pull the bristles through your fingers before first use to shed any loose ones, then wipe the excess paint off on the edge of the tin.

Which one?

For finer touch-in, the 1in brush (PPB00139) is narrower; for chassis rails and sills, the 2in (PPB00141). Clean it after solvent paint with Hammerite Brush Cleaner & Thinners – 250ml (5084918).
