press room ::  archived news Chinex® FTP™ paintbrushes Between improved scrubability and lower VOCs, water-based coatings have evolved considerably in the last 10 years. But selecting the right brush remains the same—match the filament to the paint. Are you using a brush designed For Today’s Paints? Because new Chinex® FTP™ brushes are! Wooster Chinex FTP brushes combine added stiffness with a fuller, softer tip for better results. Their firmness allows paint to be pushed farther along a surface. Better distribution and a longer paint stripe are achieved by a fuller end that increases paint release. The softer tips on these brushes not only create a smooth finish, they also leave precise edges for improved cutting-in. After painting is complete, Chinex FTP brushes continue to deliver impressive results. DuPont Chinex is known as one of the most durable and easy-to-clean paintbrush filaments! It is seven times more durable than China bristle, and it stays wetter to make brush cleaning easier. So when painters want a “durable” brush, whether they’re talking about one that won’t break down on rough surfaces or one that cleans easily for a longer workable life, Chinex FTP is the answer. Wooster Chinex FTP brushes are made for use with all paints and are available in angle sash, Shortcut®, flat sash, angle varnish, varnish, and wall styles. If you want to be sure that your next brush was designed For Today’s Paints, ask for Chinex FTP paintbrushes at your favorite Wooster source. Chinex® is a registered trademark of E.I.
