A rigger or liner brush is a thin brush with extremely long bristles. These may come to a sharp point but can have a flat or square tip. (If angled, it is often called a sword brush.) Rigger brushes are great for producing fine lines with a consistent width, making them ideal for painting thin branches on trees, boat masts, or cat's whiskers. Also known as radiator brushes, these brushes have a long, thin handle with an angled head to reach behind and around objects. They’re made with natural bristles, which are better for oil- and solvent-based paint and coatings than synthetic bristles. Find paint brushes for your next art project online at JOANN today!
