Featherline 2 Inch Oval Brush – Premium Applicator Brush for Leather Care Products

I had my doubts at first, but this is a winner. It's pretty clear as soon as I took a closer look that the manufacturer took extra measures to ensure the boar bristles were not going to fall out. Almost an inch of glued base and I can't imagine this thing every falling apart.I'm guess i'm an early adopter here since this product seems new and only had 1 review at the time of purchase. Definitely on-par with the old Annie Sloan brush I used to have!Now, keep in mind that I have only used this brush twice so far. It seemed to hold up very well for both projects and I didn't notice any bristle loss after cleaning each time. For the price, I couldn't find a better brush I liked.

Useful brush

Purchased this brush after researching and reading all the positive reviews here. Disappointed. Before using I gently pulled bristles to remove any that were loose. Once I started painting 6 or 7 immediately came off and got stuck in the paint. As I continued to paint I had less shedding but still continued to have the occasional bristle that needed to be picked out of paint. Having to stop, remove bristle, and go back over that spot with paint really slowed down my progress. Have only used it on one project, but not impressed. Too many bristles fell out.

After getting this new brush I had to try it out! I followed all directions of pre washing the brush in warm water before using, and got amazing results! I consider myself not a very good painter, but with this brush I got amazing results! Worth the money as I finally can get the results I have been looking for! No more cheap and bad quality brushes for me! I am sold on featherline

Bought this brush for my husbands gun refinishing project and it is a winner. He said the bristles held up through a tough job and thorough cleaning. He wasn't picking bristles out of the finished product which has been an issue with previous projects and lower quality brushes. He liked the leather strap for hanging it up rather than a hole because manufacturers never put a hole in them that is big enough to fit over a screw head. Cant beat the quality and the price is better than any others I was able to find. Highly recommend!

This brush is easy to use. I dip it in the leather conditioner, swirl on, wipe off...my leather couch is looking great!

I have had this brush for about a week now. It was purchased to create a distressed look on a restoration project I am working on. I am very impressed with it so far. So far no bristles have fallen out during use. The long handle and leather band are a comfortable fit and nice for drying out the brush after use. The price for this brush is great, considering the high quality. With good care, you’ll get twice the life out of this brush compared to others. I definitely recommend it this brush, and hope to see more from the Featherline series.

I USE IT TO APPLY BEESWAX CREAM ON MY LEATHER SOFA SET.

I am using this to paint an unfinished table. It has shed a few bristles onto my painting surface but I honestly don't think any brush is 100% shed-proof. I have yet to wash it as it is in a ziplock waiting to be used for a second coat. I hope it washes up nicely. I am using this with General finishes milk paint and it is giving great coverage.

We have not used the brush yet.Thank you for the fast shipping!

Just what I wanted and works great. Fast delivery.

This brush is essential to apply onto leather with great ease. Very glad to have it.

Nice brush. Quality is good, but not perfect. I was still picking stray hairs up off my project every couple of minutes.

Great product overall! Easy to hold and utilize to spread leather conditioner on furniture. Size is great because it’s thick and able to spread product on furniture quickly. While it does shed, the directions provided with the brush give detailed explanation of what to do to minimize excessive shedding during use of product.Only complaint / question would be care of brush to keep in good use is not provided (e.g., washing with soap and water after using a product with it, proper care overall, etc)

Nice brush!I am new to the "Oval" brush style but have used quite a few brushes in my time for lots of projects and this one is a keeper.I like the attention to detail and quality they put into this brush. The Boar Bristles are very good and they didn't skimp on glue to hold them in place.When I first use a new brush I always ruff them up a bit, in a nice way, to remove any loose bristles. Nothing more irritating than having bristles left behind. To my surprise I only broke off one.They mention in their description that it has a longer handle and for me I would not want it any shorter, plus the leather thong does makes it easy to hang up for drying and storage.Great price for a quality brush.

I was on the fence about buying this to wax my chalk painted dining set, but it was better thani expected! Good quality item with dense bristles. I even accidentally forgot to wash it for 2 days (oops!) and when I washed out the product and let it soak overnight it came out good as new! A few bristles came off initially, which were easy to remove, but less come off with repeated use. Overall, it loses way less bristles than I though. The handle is good quality and it works well with Minwax, which is what I bought. It also gets the nooks and crannies when applying.

I love working on my refinishing projects, it’s my own personal escape from life for a bit. I have found that these boar bristle chalk brushes really do make a difference in the final results. In the past, when I was working on some of my bigger projects, I had one brush that felt really uncomfortable in my hand and I kept losing bristles, especially after several uses (nothing says "fun" like plucking hairs out of your wet paint all evening...).So I was really hoping to find a higher quality brush that felt comfortable in my hand when I’m working on larger pieces. Seriously, I am so happy I found this one. It seems like they really put some thought into the design and shape of the handle, and I’m so glad it fits my hands as well as it does. The little leather strap makes cleaning and drying super easy, and I’m relieved that the bristles seem to hold up over many uses.Overall, I am extremely happy with this brush and would certainly recommend it to anyone looking for a great value and strong consistent results across a variety of project types. Go for it!

I am extremely happy with this purchase so far:The build quality is excellent. Bristles are strong, yet pliable and I've experienced no shedding so far. They are held together by an extra thick metal band to minimize any shedding.I love the extra long handle - longer than most chalk brushes I've used. It definitely helps with fatigue when I'm painting I also appreciate it because my hands are on the larger side.The leather strap is a nice touch. I can hang the brush up to dry when I'm finished using it and I don't have to store it in a drawer.I came across this randomly on Amazon while I was looking for something else that was related and I feel fortunate that I did. I'm amazed that Featherline is selling these at such a low price. This brush is of as good or better quality than other brushes I've purchased that easily cost me 2-3 times as much. I'm thinking of picking up a second brush soon in case prices go up.I've only painted 2 pieces of furniture so far so I will update this review down the line if I experience anything that changes my opinion of this brush. As of right now, it's an excellent quality brush at an outstanding price and will be my new go-to brush for chalk & wax painting.

This large oval Featherline brush is a life-saver for larger projects, like leather couches or chairs. It makes the job go so much quicker, and it really does a great job of pushing the cream into the leather. Highly recommend!
