Description
Overview
The Red Tree onyx white brush 2 inch Malta is a white China bristle brush for oil-based paints. It sits alongside Red Tree’s core China Bristle Brush line.
Why it works
Natural bristle holds and releases oil-based coatings more evenly than synthetic filament. That’s why it delivers a smooth, consistent finish coat after coat.
Suited to
In particular, this is what it performs best at:
- Oil-based marine enamels and topside paints
- Varnish work on brightwork and trim
- Primer coats ahead of finish painting
In practice
The bristle holds its shape through repeated loading and unloading. So its edge stays consistent across a full painting session.
Sizes and options
This brush comes in six sizes, matching the standard China bristle line. DockShop stocks the full range alongside the standard bristle brush.
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.
