They have been designed especially for this of stroke work Here's brief pass mae purpose of cach brush: Scruffy: | originally created the scruffy by shaping the bristles of an old, worn out brush inco an oval after carefully curring them fo a uniform length of about 1/2". The One Stroke™ serully brushes you can buy arc ready «0 use. All you have to do is “fluff che scruff” — remove che brush from the packaging and form the bristles into an oval shape by gen- tly palling them, then twist the bristles in the palm of your hand uncil they are a nice oval shape. Now youre ready eo pounce the beush into: paine and begin ‘A fluffed scruffy brush is used to paint mosses, wisteria, lilacs, ind fur, fauix finishes, and shading textures. This brush is not used with water. To clean, pounce the bristles in the Brush Basin® = dont rake them; the natural bristles can break. Allow the brush to dry thor- ‘oughly before painting with it again Flat Brushes: #2, #4, 26, #8, #10, 212, 3/4", 17, and 1-1/2" ‘One Stroke™ flat brushes are designed with longer brise tles and les thickness in the body of the brush than other flat brushes, so they have a much sharper chisel edge. A sharp chisel edge is essential as most of the strokes begin, and then end on the chisel edge. “These brushes are ready 10 use from the package. Simply dampen the bristles in water and dry chem with a paper towel hefore loading, When cleaning flat brushes, you can use the rake in the becom of the Brush Basin®. Flar One Stroke" brushes are synthetic and don't have a tendency to break, bur be gentle, Remember everyonc’s comfort zone is different. While one painter is comfortable using a #10, another painter may be just as comfortable with 2 3/4" fat brush. Use the size beush that is suitable for the size of your project and with which you feel most comfortable. Script liners: Tina sizes, #2 and #1 # The #1 script liner (sometimes referred to as the mini) i used for small detail work where a lot of control is needed. ©The #2 script liner is used where less control is needed, such as whem painting curlicues or string ribbons. ‘They are used with paine that is inky (thinned with water to the consistency of ink.) Use them this way: Wer the beush, Load paine on your paleste. Dip the brush in water three ta four times. Roll the wer brush in che painc, twirling the brush to load.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS * When brush is loaded correctly, your strokes should feel as though the bristles glide, IF the brush is coarse or splits, you do nor have enough paint on the brush, * Dorit brush back and forth on your palette cvery you pick up paint — if you do, you won't have enough paint on your brush to finish your strokes. + When loading brushes 46 and smaller, load with one color first, then sidestroke into the second color to double load. + When you run out of pains and need to reload, pick up a souch of paint of cither color and start painting. Using Fioatinc Mepium in THE ONE STROKE” TECHNIQUE Rather than following the boule instructions, usc Floating Medium this way to help the paint flow more smoothly: 1. Squccar a puddle of Floating Medium on your palette, 2. Load brush with paint first, as instructed. 3, Dip the tips of the bristles of the loaded brush straight down in the puddle of Floating Medium. 4, Stroke the brush on the palette 2-3 times, and you're ready to paint. ‘SPONGED FinisH Tips Follow these steps when youre sponging a faux finish. Using a sponge is similar to using a scruffy brush — if you ‘over-pounce, you will ruddy up the look. You wane the colors to be distinct. (On a small project, you could use a serufly brush instead of a sponge.) 1, Squceze paint colors on your palette as directed. 2. Dampeh a household sponge in water, squeeze dry. 3.
