Gently rinse the bristles in lukewarm water to remove any manufacturing residue. Swirl the bristles to ensure they are clean before proceeding to your painting project. — Prepare Brushes Before First Use 2. Dip the brush into your chosen medium (acrylic, oil, or watercolor). Use the short handles for precise control and the varied shapes for different strokes, from fine lines to broad coverage. — Apply Paint and Create Art 3. Rinse bristles thoroughly with water (and mild soap for oils/acrylics) until water runs clear. Gently reshape the bristles with your fingers while wet. — Clean Brushes Immediately After Use 4. Store brushes bristle-up in a jar or holder, or lay them flat. Avoid storing them bristle-down, as this can damage the bristles and affect their shape over time. — Store Brushes Properly ## Product details | Field | Value | |---|---| | Bristle Material | Synthetic Hair | | Ferrule Material | Silver-colored Metal | | Handle Material | Wood | | Set Includes | 6 Brushes (Flats, Shaders, Rounds, Fan, Daggers, Filberts, Washes, Liners - specific shapes vary by set number) | | Recommended Mediums | Acrylic, Oil, Watercolor, Gouache | | Application Techniques | Detailing, Blocking, Shading, Lettering, Washes | | Cost per brush | ₹380 per brush | | Shelf life after opening | N/A (Durable tool) | | Reapplication math | N/A (Durable tool) | | Contraindications | Not intended for house painting or industrial use. | | Allergens / common irritants | None commonly reported for synthetic brushes. | | Brand | Princeton Art & Brush Company | | Set Name | Select Artiste | | Model Number | P3750SET121 | | Color | Princeton Blue | | Material | Wood Handles, Synthetic Bristles | | Bristle Type | Flagged Synthetic | | Handle Length | Short | | Item Weight | 0.48 oz (13.6 g) | | Package Dimensions | 10.5 x 2.5 x 0.2 inches (26.7 x 6.4 x 0.5 cm) | | Country of Origin | Not stated by manufacturer — US retail version, sourced from authorized US retailers | ## Frequently asked questions ### How to buy an original Princeton Select Artiste brush set in India?
