Paint Brush EPM English Flat Gold 76 mm (3") – flat brush for painting and varnishing

The EPM English Flat Gold paint brush, 76 mm (3"), is a flat-format hand brush designed for applying paints, varnishes and primers on a variety of surfaces. Its 76 mm-wide head delivers broad, even coverage and is suitable for work on wood, metal and plaster. The brush is intended for general painting and finishing tasks, including doors, panels, fences and furniture touch-ups.

Advantages

The flat shape and 76 mm width allow faster coverage of medium-sized surfaces while retaining control for edge and detail work. The construction supports both solvent-based and water-based coatings, providing versatility for different painting and varnishing jobs.

• Working width: 76 mm (3")
• Intended coatings: paints, varnishes, primers
• Suitable surfaces: wood, metal, plaster
• Handle: ergonomic for hand-held use

How to use

Dip the brush into paint or varnish no more than one-third to one-half of the filament length to avoid drips and maintain even loading. Apply using long, even strokes along the grain on wood, or in consistent passes on metal and plaster, overlapping each stroke slightly to avoid visible joins. Clean the brush promptly after use with the appropriate solvent for the chosen coating—water for water-based paints, and the recommended solvent for solvent-based products—and reshape the filaments before drying.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use the 76 mm flat brush for medium-width surfaces where smooth, even coverage is required. When working on edges or trim, use the flat edge for precise lines. Store the brush suspended or flat after cleaning to preserve filament shape and prolong service life.
