Purdy Brushes


Featured Posts

I've just been reading about these "Purdy" brushes, which seem universally recommended. I've looked them out on a famous internet auction site and there seems to be various ranges of them, so which is the best?

Ref the Purdy brushes, I was asking similar questions the other day on here, and it seemed to be the general opinion that they are the best. On the strength of that, I just bought a Promo Pack of 5 Purdy brushes containing both the Elite and the Pro-Extra. Can't report on them yet as I have yet to use them. Can't help but think how similar they are to B & Qs own brand, except Purdy's have wooden handles. The texture and feel seem identical, but at a quarter of the price. As I said, cannot comment fully until I have tried them out in anger for real. One thing thought, I will pay a little more attention to cleaning the Purdy brushes, unlike the B&Q ones, which usually get slung after a couple of uses.

Edited to say, picked up the Pro Set of Purdy's at Crick Boat Show for £40 last weekend.

I believe that the principal charactersistic which distinguishes Purdy brushes from others is that they are the only ones which are guaranteed not to shed bristles when being used.
