ATLIN Touch Up Paint Brushes, 100 Pack, 1.5mm Brushes for Car Paint Touchup

Very tiny but worked out perfect. Gave me more control of how much paint to apply and where it went. Touch-up paint bottle brush would have just put blobs on and been very obvious.

I build HO scale railroad models and have been looking for a small micro brush/applicator to apply Pan Pastel weathering powders to finished models. On models such as the hopper in this review, there are many surfaces, tiny details, seams and nooks and crannies that are difficult to get to with the the usual sponge applicators and even small brushes. These ATLIN micro brushes solved the problem. The small brush tip not only allows even the smallest amount of powder to be picked up; the brushes are stiff enough to allow one to apply the powder with accuracy and very fine control. Subtleties and nuances of realistic weathering are very easily attained with these brushes. It’s not often I can say a seeming innocuous little tool will increase your modeling skills but these do! The packaging is very user friendly as well. Without a lengthy explanation; the clever container design means there is little chance that an errant elbow or seven thumbs will mean 100 or so micro brushes taking off in unison for parts unknown.

The small micro brushes arrived in a padded envelope, but unfortunately the thin rigid plastic case they are delivered in was shattered, so I will have to store them in a ziplock bag. Technically the brushes are fine and good for the task.

Work great for fine painting details.

This is a very inexpensive and very cost-effective set. I used it to touch up a rock chip in my car. It works really well. It loads paint well but you have to be aware to do dabs on the area that you are painting. This is not a brush that you stroke with. This is a small brush. It is about the size of one and a half standard Q-tips. The description says that the brushes are disposable but I have found that you can clean the brushes with brush cleaner and wiped off with a paper towel. I was able to use them again afterwards. Chip repair requires patience. You put on a layer of paint, you wait half an hour ( it's cold where I am right now and I don't have a blow-dryer), and you add the next layer per the instructions of your touch-up kit. I really like these brushes. They are small enough to clean crevices in the car. I think I may be using them for a bunch of other things aside from touch-up.

These worked well for what I use them for, which is cleaning and brushing dead rehydrated insects. The tip is very small, but does have a brush texture and doesn't fall off the applicator stick. The container has a partial flip-top so you don't risk dropping all the applicators on the floor. Only about 20. Not fun to pick up, but it could be 5x as bad. These are really designed to be a one time use. I wouldn't try to stretch them out to a couple of uses.

Hi I really like the size. The issue I have is I wish there was a little more Padding on the tip because when I'm using them sometimes there isn't enough padding and I end up painting with the plastic on the end

This item was exactly what I needed.And worked perfectly
