Neef 980 Taklon Long Flat Brushes
Neef 980 Taklon Long Flat Brushes are made with soft white taklon hair that provide a smooth stroke. They have very strong filaments, excellent colour carrying capacity and a short handle for ease of control.
Neef 980 Taklon Long Flat Brushes feature long hair with a squared off edge. They are used to produce long sweeping even lines (sometimes called "one stroke").
Suitable for watercolour, gouache, acrylics, oils and also inks.
Most quality brushes were originally made from animal hair. When the invention of synthetic hair first came about, the quality of those brushes werent great. Robert A Wade aka "Australia's Unofficial Ambassador of Watercolour" the worked in collaboration with Neef to create a quality synthetic brush that could mimic the benefits of natural haired brushes.
