Transform Your Furniture with a Professional Finish
Give your old furniture the care it deserves with the Colorantic™ Pack Of 2 Synthetic Oval Brushes #6. Designed for decorating enthusiasts and furniture makeover professionals, these brushes are more than simple tools, they are the secret to achieving a smooth, even surface without unwanted brush marks.
The oval shape is the preferred choice of experts in chalk paint applications. Why? Because it combines the paint-holding capacity of a larger brush with the precision of a finer one. Its dense bristles retain an optimal amount of paint, reducing trips back to the paint container while ensuring consistent coverage across larger surfaces.
Why Choose Colorantic Synthetic Bristles?
Unlike standard flat brushes, the oval shape of our #6 model provides improved paint distribution. This means fewer drips and smoother application on detailed surfaces such as mouldings, carved table legs, and decorative furniture accents.
Our high-quality synthetic fibres are designed to replicate the softness of natural bristles while offering the durability of modern nylon. When used with chalk paint, these bristles resist swelling from water exposure, helping them maintain their precise shape hour after hour.
- Streak-Free Finish: Fine bristles glide smoothly across wood, metal, or melamine, naturally levelling the paint during application.
- Enhanced Durability: Designed to withstand frequent cleaning, these brushes are a reliable long-term addition to your creative workspace.
- Complete Versatility: While perfect for Colorantic paints, they also perform beautifully with finishing waxes, topcoats, primers, and decorative finishes.
Ergonomic Design and Signature Style
Recognizable by their signature purple-toned bristles, these brushes feature an ergonomic handle designed to reduce hand fatigue during longer painting sessions. Whether you are working on intricate carved details or curved chair legs, the #6 size offers the precision and control needed to reach every corner with ease.
At Colorantic, we believe every piece of furniture has a story to tell. Our accessories are thoughtfully designed to help you create the next chapter of your décor with elegance, creativity, and remarkable ease of use.
Expert Tips for a Flawless Finish
- Preparation: Slightly dampen the synthetic bristles before first use to improve paint flow and application.
- Technique: Always paint following the direction of the wood grain for a seamless and professional finish.
- Cleaning: Since the fibres do not retain excessive moisture, a simple wash with soap and water is enough to keep them looking like new. Avoid leaving the brush soaking at the bottom of a bucket to preserve the shape of the oval tip.

Sustainable Packaging and Practices
It Grips Without Sanding
On previously painted or varnished wood, scuffing with an abrasive pad is enough. Full sanding is only needed if the old finish is flaking.
Two Coats in One Day
About an hour between coats at room temperature. A piece started in the morning is back together by evening.
Water-Based, from Start to Finish
Brushes, rollers and spills clean up with warm water. No solvents, and almost no odour after a few hours.

How Much Paint for Your Surface?
Coverage depends first on what you’re painting. Here’s what one litre covers in practice, depending on the surface and how it’s prepared.
Bare Wood
- Coverage
- 9 m² per litre
- Coats
- 2 coats
- Preparation
- Sand with 180 grit, dust off, prime tannin-rich woods.
Bare wood soaks up the first coat. Plan on two coats and lower coverage than on other surfaces.
Previously Painted or Varnished Wood
- Coverage
- 12 m² per litre
- Coats
- 2 coats
- Preparation
- Degrease, scuff with an abrasive pad, wipe dry.
On a surface that’s already sealed, the paint stays on top: that’s where coverage is at its best.
Interior Walls
- Coverage
- 11 m² per litre
- Coats
- 2 coats
- Preparation
- Wash, fill, let dry completely.
A matte wall repainted in a similar tone may need only one coat.
Melamine, Laminate and Metal
- Coverage
- 10 m² per litre
- Coats
- 2 coats
- Preparation
- Degrease with alcohol, then a bonding primer — no exceptions.
It’s the one step you can’t skip: without a bonding primer, the paint chips at the first knock.
The Questions We Get Asked
-
Do I need to sand before painting?
Rarely. On previously painted or varnished wood, scuffing with an abrasive pad is enough to open up the surface. Full sanding is only needed if the old finish is blistering or flaking.
-
How many coats should I plan for?
Two, in the vast majority of cases. One is enough to refresh a similar shade; plan on three when a dark blue or red has to disappear under a white.
-
Is a primer necessary?
On wood, plaster and drywall, no. On melamine, laminate and metal, yes: a bonding primer, otherwise nothing holds for long.
-
Can a painted surface be washed?
Once protected with wax or varnish, yes: a damp cloth and mild soap. Chalk paint left bare stays porous and stains.
-
How long should I wait between coats?
About an hour at room temperature. Wait longer if the air is humid: the coat must be dry all the way through, not just to the touch.
