Flogger / Grainer Brush
*all prices include VAT |
Our Flogger / Grainer brush is hand crafted in the United Kingdom to the highest standards of quality using only the finest bristle, solid brass ferrule and high quality hardwood handle. This Flogger will give many years of excellent service when used and cleaned with care. This Flogger / Grainer brush is used to provide woodgraining effects. It has long whippy bristles which when struck against the glaze produce a random, but related pattern similar to that seen in the grain of the wood. It is usual to drag the glaze before flogging. Dragging is pulling a dry brush through the wet glaze to leave parallel lines, these lines are then broken up with the flogger. Ideal for use with both oil and acrylic glaze. Either buy or make up a glaze (scumble) in artists oil colours to the desired shade. Brush in your surface with a broad flat brush, then drag from the top of the panel or wall section evenly with a Dragger. Then strike the dragged glaze with the full length of the Floggers bristles, repeating the action along the direction of the lines until all the dragging lines are distressed.
Immediately after use, wash the brush well in cool soapy water, using hard bar soap. Work the soap into a lather throughout the bristles to condition them. Rinse and hang the brush to dry. Please note: Acrylics dry quickly. Keep bristles wet while in use. Clean hardened brush with denatured alcohol (Methylated Spirits).
Available in 50mm (2 inch) width.
