Brush for MWF

[ackvil]

I have a Caswell-Massey bristle and boar combo brush that has never been a favorite of mine but won't part with it since it was part of a gift package from my oldest son. Well, I have found that is a perfect brush for MWF. The bristles in it are stiffer than my badger brushes and do an exceptional job with MWF.

My Simpson Ehsan creates an incredible amount of lather when using MWF and has very soft tips.

I have a Harvard H4 that is absolutely phenomenal with MWF.

+1 on the Semogue. My SOC, 620 & 1305 are great with MWF.

The brushes that give me an incredibly good lather with MWF are my Semogue SOC and my Simpson Colonel X2L Best.

End of thread!

Rooney 1/1, the new Stubby XL and my Shavemac flattop, a good fan shaped brush will tackle MWF.

Jim sounds like a real winner.... I was surprised how well in the past a Kent BK 4 and a huge Vulfix #41 did a very nice job with MWF... ( and all soaps for that matter).

I have both of these brushes and agree that they both are great soap brushes that work very well with MWF. I have never had a problem with MWF which I am sure is a direct result of the quality of our water.

Best regards,

+1 on the Harvard. I also get a great MWF lather from the Simpson Milk Churn.

+1 on that Bob....same here with the "churn"

A big +1 for "The Colonel."

 

[O.G.]

I use a medium Edwin Jagger Super badger or a silver Tip all work fine. I would say go with a stiff brush if the options is the one that you enjoy.

 

[Optometrist]

Can use my EJ medium silvertip but the Simpson Colonel X2L makes mince meat out of it.

Hi Jim,
I have several brushes...some are floppy, have softer tips than others and some have stiff backbone. I have found them all great for MWF (or any other soaps for that matter). ALl my brushes and MWF get along well

Absolutely agree - I have no problem lathering MWF with any of my brushes. I think that water quality is the essence of a good lather.

 

[ctkelly]

I have hard water and still can produce good lather with MWF....I use a Sem 1305 and a Rudy Vey chubby copy.

 

[Perished]

I find only 'firm' bristles work for me on MWF. Either a Semogue 1305 or my 'Douglas' perform best on the soap. My Kent BK8 and others like it, were rubbish.

My Semogue Boars are first class with MWF.
