Consistent texture
Greater control for detailing

How to Choose the Right Brush for Your Project
Choosing the right brush depends on the stage of application and the surface you're working on:
Initial Application: Use a medium to large synthetic brush to spread the cement evenly.
Detailing: Switch to a fine, high-precision brush.
Final Touches: Use soft-bristle or natural fiber brushes for smooth blending.
Brush Techniques for Flawless Application
Feathering: Light strokes at the end of application can eliminate hard lines.
Blending: Use overlapping strokes to blend different sections seamlessly.
Layering: Allow layers to dry slightly before applying the next to build depth without disrupting the surface.
Maintenance and Care for Micro Cement Brushes
To ensure longevity and performance:
Clean brushes immediately after use with water and a mild detergent.
Avoid soaking brushes for extended periods.
Store them flat or hanging to preserve bristle shape.
Regularly inspect for bristle shedding or stiffness.
