Description
Overview
The Red Tree foam brush handle 3 inch Malta is a wood-handled foam brush for fine finishing. It suits varnish, stain, and thin-coat work where lay-down matters most.
Why it works
Foam applies coatings without the bristle marks a brush can leave behind. That’s why it’s a common choice for clear finishes, where every stroke shows.
Suited to
In particular, this is what it performs best at:
- Varnish and clear coat touch-ups
- Stain application on wood trim and brightwork
- Thin, even coats where brush marks would show
In practice
Like a chip brush, it is economical enough to discard rather than clean. That suits solvent-based stains where cleaning foam isn’t practical.
Sizes and options
This brush comes in four sizes, from detail work to broader coats. DockShop stocks the full foam brush line for varnish and stain work.
Why DockShop stocks it
Redtree Industries builds its applicator range for demanding coating work, so the quality holds up under regular use. Because DockShop imports the line directly, the exact size or pack a job calls for is normally in stock, not a special order. That matters most on a job with a tight schedule, when a supply delay is not an option.
Care and storage
However you use it, rinse or clean the brush or roller promptly afterwards, based on the coating type. A little care after each job keeps it performing well for longer, so it is ready for the next coat without a trip back to the shelf.
