Refinishing the wood on a Turkish No.6

Nice! I'm surprised there's a nail polish called fresh paint. Has to be good stuff.

Cheap, it's from the Dollar store. Dries fast and does the job!

Not bad! The newer No.6 brushes have better lacquer but an old one I had a couple years ago was in need of this process before I PIF'd it.

I have two No. 6 and the handle on my second brush is nicer, and the loft denser as well.





The No. 6 is a great brush. Here with some other wooden handle colleagues:

Semogue SOC, Turkish n.6, Omega 10005

I've refinished mine with MinWax Fast Drying Polyurethane. Has held up for over a year so far. But then I had some left over from other projects.

Did you keep the natural color or you stained it?
It is amazing how well this low cost brush performs. In fact I think I prefer it over the Omega 10005. It is not an SOC, but at $2.45 it is a hell of a brush, worth every penny! And extremely versatile.

I left mine natural, no stain. You are correct these #6 brushes are a super value at only $2.45. I even reordered extras cause it seems like every time I get something I REALLY like if and when it finally wears out it discountinued, no longer available. Well I took care of that little problem.
