Paintbrush

Abstract

A brush includes a plurality of filaments forming a head with a tip having an angled/inclined top when viewed from a side of the brush; and a top in a V-shape when viewed from a top or bottom of the brush. In an alternative embodiment, the filaments form an “Angled Flat Head” defined by tip having an angled/inclined top when viewed from a top or bottom of the brush; and a flat edge when viewed from a side of the brush. In another alternative, the filaments form an “Angled V Head” defined by a tip having an angled/inclined top when viewed from a top or bottom of the brush; and a V-shape top when viewed from a side of the brush. Such configurations of the heads of the brushes preferably are defined by the varying lengths of the filaments, the distal ends of which define the tips of the brushes.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A cut-in brush for painting, comprising a plurality of brush filaments at a head of the brush defining a tip having (a) an angled/inclined top when viewed from a top or bottom of the brush, thereby allowing for the brush to get close to trim without getting paint from the filaments on the trim; and (b) a flat edge when viewed from a side of the brush, thereby providing for more control of the brush during painting. 
     
     
         2 . The brush of  claim 1 , comprising a square ferrule thereby allowing for lining up of paint for easier flow. 
     
     
         3 . The brush of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of brush filaments exceeds a conventional number of brush filaments found in a conventional brush, whereby the brush has an extra filament pack-out for fewer dips. 
     
     
         4 . The brush of  claim 1 , wherein the brush is a 2-inch brush. 
     
     
         5 . The brush of  claim 1 , wherein the brush is a 2.5-inch brush. 
     
     
         6 . A cut-in brush for painting, comprising a plurality of brush filaments at a head of the brush defining a tip having (a) an angled/inclined top when viewed from a top or bottom of the brush, thereby allowing for the brush to get close to trim without getting paint from the filaments on the trim; and (b) a V-shape top when viewed from a side of the brush, thereby providing for easy painting on both the right and left side of trim. 
     
     
         7 . The brush of  claim 6 , comprising a square ferrule thereby allowing for lining up of paint for easier flow. 
     
     
         8 . The brush of  claim 6 , wherein the plurality of brush filaments exceeds a conventional number of brush filaments found in a conventional brush, whereby the brush has an extra filament pack-out for fewer dips. 
     
     
         9 . The brush of  claim 6 , wherein the brush is a 2-inch brush. 
     
     
         10 . The brush of  claim 6 , wherein the brush is a 2.5-inch brush. 
     
     
         11 . A cut-in brush for painting, comprising a plurality of brush filaments at a head of the brush defining a tip having (a) an angled/inclined top when viewed from a side of the brush, thereby allowing for the brush to get close to trim without getting paint from the filaments on the trim; and (b) a V-shape top when viewed from a top or bottom of the brush, thereby providing for painting with a single-pass with a wide swath. 
     
     
         12 . The brush of  claim 11 , comprising a square ferrule thereby allowing for lining up of paint for easier flow. 
     
     
         13 . The brush of  claim 11 , wherein the plurality of brush filaments exceeds a conventional number of brush filaments found in a conventional brush, whereby the brush has an extra filament pack-out for fewer dips. 
     
     
         14 . The brush of  claim 11 , wherein the brush is a 2-inch brush. 
     
     
         15 . The brush of  claim 11 , wherein the brush is a 2.5-inch brush.
