Description

The Neef 987 Brush Flat is a white taklon hair flat brush for both acrylics and watercolours with a stainless steel Ferrule. This Short Flat Taklon brush (often called a shader) is a versatile, short-handled synthetic brush designed for precise control in acrylic, oil, and watercolour painting. It is best for blocking in colour, creating sharp edges, shading, blending and applying highlights. For greater control with watercolour use the Neef 205 Pure Sable Brush.

What to use the Neef 987 Brush Flat for:

• Blocking in Colour: Its flat ferrule and square, synthetic Taklon hairs allow for even coverage and filling in smaller, defined areas.
• Shading and Blending: Ideal for creating smooth gradients and shading in both acrylic and oil mediums.
• Sharp Edges and Detailing: The square, stiff-ish bristles are excellent for creating sharp lines and precise edges, making it a good choice for detailed work or lettering.
• Versatile Medium Usage: Although synthetic, it is designed for use with heavy-bodied mediums like acrylic and oil, but works well with watercolour too.

Key Features:

• Hair: Synthetic Taklon (provides a good snap and retains its shape).
• Handle: Short handle, ideal for close-up, detailed, or small-scale work.
• Shape: Short Flat (Shader).
