First use of my Paladin 2XL 28mm 2CLNE7 in Strawberry Amber. Yikes!!! This brush is ridiculously great, there is zero, as in not a hint of scritch. Yet, there is face presence, it isn’t just mush, I think it has presence due to the backbone because the tips are incredibly soft.
The handle is short, but has a very nice width to height ratio so it is very comfortable.
The knot made amazingly silky lather, the lather didn’t seem to escape the sides of the knot, and splays and paints well.
This brush seriously knocked my socks off, just fantastic in every imaginable way. I’m so glad I won the auction.
