Product Questions

Q1: Why is a China Bristle brush specifically good for applying wood stains?

100% China Bristle (natural hog hair) brushes are traditionally favored for oil-based stains because the natural “flagging” (split ends) of the bristles holds more stain and allows for a smoother, more even application with better penetration into the wood grain, reducing streaks and lap marks.

Q2: Can I use this brush with water-based wood stains?

While this brush is optimized for oil-based Minwax Wood Finish Stains due to its natural China bristles, some users might use it carefully with water-based stains for small applications. However, natural bristles can absorb water and potentially become limp or lose their shape, so for best results with water-based stains, a synthetic bristle brush (like nylon/polyester) is generally recommended.  

Q3: What's the best way to clean this brush after using an oil-based stain?

Clean the brush immediately after use with mineral spirits or paint thinner. Work the solvent through the bristles thoroughly to remove all traces of the stain. Repeat if necessary. After cleaning with solvent, you can optionally wash with warm, soapy water, then rinse well, reshape the bristles, and hang to dry or lay flat. Proper cleaning will maintain the brush’s performance.
