Foam Brush Hardness

I only used one of the many brushes that came in the box. The wooden handle foam brush (desired attribute 0) holds up quite well during use and I can use it over and over again. Water-based paint washes off easily.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Expensive

Large assortment!: Artists' and painting supplies

So many different brush sizes in this set! I used them for a decoupage project on a wooden box and they are perfect. You can even rinse them off if you're using a water-based mod podge so they last a long time. Great brush set at a very good price. Very happy!

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • No paint required

Wide range of sizes and uses

I only use brushes to apply paint. However, my daughter, who paints small freehand murals, "stole" the smaller black brushes as well as the thinner white brushes. There are different foams on the market used for different brushes and these seams use the best foam.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Style 90

Mostly very small brushes

I used one of these brushes and the suds came off the brush handle almost immediately. I was also disappointed that many of the brushes are very small, more an artist's size than a painter's (almost the size of a cotton swab, I think). Not what I was hoping for in terms of brushes.

Pros
  • Useful for more than its intended purpose
Cons
  • So far so good

You get what you pay for

Fix furniture. I used 6 brushes in one painting day; a piece of furniture. They will either break or the foam will tear. I use foam brushes all the time and can usually use each brush at least 3-4 times before it's time to throw them away. Not this one. I was very disappointed. Wouldn't recommend it. Very badly done.

Pros
  • Ease of use
Cons
  • Quick start guide

Works while you are.

Too many small ones and not enough big ones. Large or medium not for full work during coloring. The foam brushes break off the wooden handle in the middle of the work and then you get stuck with the tiny brushes when painting the kitchen island. It seems that the weight of the stain (also the colors I'm sure) is just pulling the piece of foam off the handle. Not worth it in my opinion.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Expensive

Sponge too stiff, grip on sponge too weak

I bought these to apply java gel to railings. I used a different kind for the first coat and then ordered that one. Much more like the first one I used, it was softer and the strokes glided much smoother than this one. These sponges were a little rougher than I prefer. I've learned to work with them but will return to other softer ones if I buy again. At the same time, there was a wide variety of sizes and shapes in the package.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Requires a base
