‘Gadgetry’ and Brushes
Our brush range has been discontinued from 1st March 2026. The images below show the styles of brushes we recommend for best results in our painting techniques. Let us help you find and select the most suitable equipment from the brushes commercially available.
Water Brushes

Refillable brushes! Simply unscrew the barrel and fill with the diluted colour needed for your project. Rinse bristles under running water when finished using them Brushes can be stored with colour in them, or emptied and washed ready to refill. Available in two sizes:
Small Round and Large Round
Double Tipped Markers
Still Available
Versatile felt-tipped markers for use on fabric. Bullet (rounded) tip on one end and a beveled tip on the other end. Suitable for use in fine detailed work, dot painting, and line designs.

Ball-Point Nozzles
Still Available
A ball-point ‘gadget’ that can be inserted into our
36 ml bottles for detailed work when using the Flat Paint range and Liquid Lustres. The spring action of the ball in the tip allows the paint flow to stop when paint is lifted from the fabric.

Remove nozzle from paint bottle and rinse it thoroughly in clean water. Allow to dry completely before reusing in another paint.
Bristle Brushes
Now Discontinued
A top quality natural bristle brush in five sizes, from small to large used for printing techniques and stencilling. These brushes will last for years of hard work!
Elite Brushes
Now Discontinued
Sizes #2, #4, and #6 used for detailed fabric art work. Choose the size of brush appropriate for the size of the design area into which you are working. Firm synthetic brushes ideal for ensuring perfect bond of paint to fabric
The images above show the brushes formerly recommended and sold by us for best application of paint to fabric and other surfaces. Sadly we can no longer compete with the larger stores and the huge variety of brushes in the marketplace. Bonding of paint to fabric is the key for successful fabric designing. A top quality brush with correct bristle strength (or softness) as required for your project will do this. Please contact me so I can point you in the right direction in choosing your brushes. Advice is free, and may just save the fastness and washability of your work.
Classic Brushes
Now Discontinued
White synthetic brushes - a variety of sizes in flats or rounds. Suitable for silk painting and watercolour techniques, the softness of the bristles allows for good flow of colour through silk and other fibres.
