Painting Brush

Abstract

The chemical-fiber-made brush is capable of providing sufficient amounts of coating material picked up and released to improve the working efficiency of the coating operation. The brush is provided with bristles 1 made up of a bundle of chemical-fiber monofilaments including wavy monofilaments. By mixing wavy monofilaments and non-wavy monofilaments, the amount picked up can be increased as compared with the case of bristles made up of non-wavy monofilaments, and the spreading out of the leading ends of the bristles can be prevented as compared with bristles made up of wavy monofilaments alone.

1 . A painting brush having bristles, wherein the bristles comprise straight chemical-fiber monofilaments and wavy chemical-fiber monofilaments.  
   
   
       2 . A painting brush according to  claim 1 , wherein the wavy monofilaments are included among the bristles in a mixing-proportion of from 10% to 80%.  
   
   
       3 . A painting brush according to  claim 1 , wherein the bristles include the straight chemical-fiber monofilaments, the wavy chemical-fiber monofilaments and animal hair.
