The Best Paintbrushes for Emulsion in the World
Simon Young
Attention to detail – the secret to professional painting and decorating. Listed under abranet, Blog, Painting, preparation Posted Apr 13 2010. So it isn’t a secret now, but attention to detail is what separates the painting and decorating men from the boys.
I’ve been a decorator for the best part of 30 years and I’m a real brush geek, trying loads of different brands from across the work. The Decorators Forum UK have asked me to name the very best paintbrushes for emulsion, these are my top 5. Most are available in the UK.
Richard
Richard is a Canadian paint brush manufacture. Currently they have a limited range available from Mypaintbrush. Or you can have access to the full range from Canada which means shipping over. They are what I’d call a premium brush. Very high-quality bristles & ergonomically designed. I love the sheer number of filaments in the brush and length of them. It holds loads of paint and lays of very well. What I don’t like is the density and length of the filaments when it’s wash out time! The amount of material it holds can make it a chore to wash out, taking significantly longer to clean. Also buying from the UK you only get access to a limited range. Price is in the £10-£15 area, so not cheap, but a very nice brush. A solid 8/10 for me. Easily one of the best paintbrushes out there.
Oldfields
Oldfields have been making paint brushes in Australia for over 100 years. They are master brush makers. I’ve been using Oldfields for over a year now. They have recently become exclusively available from Mypaintbrush. They are an extremely well made and designed brush. Available in beaver tail and long handled. Nice soft synthetic filaments, paint pickup and flow are also great. Long lasting and hold their shape incredibly well after washing out. What I don’t like; Not a lot honestly…Maybe a few more filaments in the oval brushes, but that’s just me being picky. Price wise I think they are bang on the money at 2 brushes for £15. I’d rate then easily at 9/10.
Zachary Royals
Another Canadian paintbrush manufacture. Once again, I’ve been using them for over a year now. I was reluctant to put these forward initially due to the difficulties in obtaining them. As of writing this, they are only available from one UK Facebook seller, although you can buy them from Canada and have them sent over. Zachary Brushes have a super soft and thin filament blend, very similar to a Proform Blaze, but with zero twisting issues. They excel in cutting in too. They are easily one of the best cutting brushes I’ve ever used. They are a good brush in every way, but the cutting line the produce is very good indeed. I don’t like how hard they are to find/obtain in the UK. They need to try harder to secure a proper EU/UK distributor. Also, I find the filaments tend to hold on to the dry paint around the ferrule. Price wise it’s a bit all over the place. If you can get them UK supplied £12ish a brush, ordering from USA/Canada £35 for 3. I’d rate them a 8/10.
Premier
A massive USA brand, although better known for their rollers than brushes. They make rollers for a host of other brands; chances are high you’ve used their stuff and not known it. Premier have 3 main blends available. My preference is the Morton firm blend. It’s a great brush for your thicker paints like Dulux Diamond matt and Armstead Anti mould. Good pickup and laying off. Nice ergonomics and wash out very well. I don’t like the filming length, I feel it could be a touch longer. Currently only available from London Decorators’ Merchants, but I believe that’s going to improve soon. Price wise… £10 – £15 a brush depending on size. Solid 7.5/10
ProDec Ice Fusion
I couldn’t do a brush review without including Ice Fusion paintbrush! I got off to a rocky start with these. I was initially comparing them to the premium brushes I’ve talked about. I was left underwhelmed, an average brush. Not worth all the fan fair. Then I took a second look. I compared them to other brushes in their price range, Fox, Axus, Rolling Dog, Ciret etc… Now they make sense! Using them back to back with those the Ice Fusion blow the competition out the water. For me there isn’t another brush at this price point that comes close. £15 for a box of 3! They are a great everyday brush. Hold a fair amount of paint, lays it down well, washed out great and held there shape too. I love the move away from paper envelopes to the waterproof plastic… I don’t like the aluminium ferrule though. Price is great at £15 a box, solid 7/10.
And they are the 5 best paintbrushes for emulsion in the world as I see it. I hope you found it useful

Fossa ViperTrim Straight Cut Synthetic Paint Brush with Beavertail hardwood handle is suitable for use with all decorative paints such as emulsions and acrylics when cutting in, but it excels when used with any water-borne trim paints on doors, windows, cladding, skirting etc. You can also purchase the ViperTrim in a Angled-cut trim.
The ViperTrim has been praised by Professional Decorators because it performs so well with todays modern water-based paints. It's hand chiseled tip, sharp straight edge, and stainless steel oval ferrule offers good loading with precise control. It uses a latest generation Polybutylene Terephalate synthetic filament blend, with softer, fine tapered filament ends that release paint smoothly and produce an brilliant fine, brush-mark free finish.
Make sure you buy a paint brush comb, which is highly recommended for combing and straightening the paint brush filament during use. For water-based paints, dampen filaments before use, to aid cleaning and reduce dry paint build up.
