Brush set Artequipment Amsterdam Series 600 XL (18-24) – Synthetic flat brushes, 2 pcs

Artequipment Amsterdam Series 600 XL (18-24) Brush Set includes two synthetic flat brushes in widths 18 mm and 24 mm designed for use with acrylic, oil and tempera paints. The brushes have synthetic filaments that keep their shape and are mounted in nickel-plated brass ferrules on long ergonomic handles. The flat shape and larger widths make these brushes suitable for filling areas, laying down broad strokes and working on canvases and panels where consistent coverage and controlled edges are required.

Advantages

The synthetic hairs maintain their shape over repeated use and are compatible with thicker media such as oils and acrylics. The flat profile provides even paint distribution and reliable edge control. Long ergonomic handles give comfortable reach for working on larger formats. Nickel-plated brass ferrules secure the filaments and resist corrosion, helping to extend the usable life of the brushes under normal studio conditions.

Suitable for

• Acrylic painting on canvas and paper
• Oil painting on panels and stretched canvas
• Tempera and other water-based opaque techniques
• Filling large areas and laying glazes or washes
• Blending and creating straight-edged strokes

Key specifications

• Brush type: synthetic flat
• Set contents: 2 brushes
• Widths: 18 mm and 24 mm
• Handle: long ergonomic wooden handle

How to use

Choose the brush width that matches the area you need to cover; the 18 mm brush is useful for narrower bands and edges while the 24 mm brush covers larger surfaces more quickly. Load the flat brush with paint along the length of the filaments for consistent application, and use the flat edge for controlled, straight strokes or the broad face for filling. Clean brushes promptly after use according to the paint type—use water and mild soap for acrylics and tempera, and the appropriate solvent followed by soap and water for oil paints—and reshape the filaments before drying.

Usage recommendations

Store brushes horizontally or with the bristles up after drying to preserve shape. Avoid soaking wooden handles for prolonged periods and keep ferrules free of dried paint to maintain secure attachment of the filaments.
