Lettering Brushes


Lettering brushes are a type of brush used for brush lettering, sign painting, lining, outlining, and pinstriping. The surfaces where these types of brushes are used vary widely, from murals, small sign cards, and vehicles, to awnings and glass windows or doors. Blick carries a wide variety of brushes with natural fibers, synthetic filaments, or a mix of natural and synthetic fibers, in every size and shape.


The long hairs in most lettering brushes and sign painting brushes help them hold a lot of paint, which is useful for producing large letters or graphics with a single stroke. Soft natural fibers, such as sable and squirrel, perform best on smooth surfaces such as glass, plastic, vinyl, and metal. For abrasive surfaces such as wood, ceramics, or acrylic-primed canvas, stronger brush fibers are preferred, such as natural bristle and durable synthetic fibers. Shop Blick for high-quality lettering and pinstriping brushes made by Escoda, Luco, Kafka, Princeton, Robert Simmons, Richeson, Silver Brush, Winsor & Newton, and other fine brushmakers.
