Asian Paints Trucare Brush 790: The Extra-Wide Master for Faster Painting

When you have a massive wall to paint, a standard brush often feels too slow. Enter the Asian Paints Trucare Brush 790 (5 Inch). This professional-grade tool is designed for speed and efficiency, featuring an extra-wide profile that covers 25% more surface area per stroke than a standard 4-inch brush.

Ideally suited for large exterior facades, boundary walls, and expansive interior ceilings, the Asian Paints Trucare Brush 790 combines the finesse of premium synthetic bristles with the rugged durability needed for big jobs. Whether you are applying a heavy-bodied exterior emulsion or a smooth interior primer, this brush ensures you finish the job faster without compromising on the quality of the finish.

Why Choose the Asian Paints Trucare Brush 790?

Time is money, especially on large projects. Here is why upgrading to the Asian Paints Trucare Brush 790 makes sense:

• Maximum Coverage: The 5-inch (125mm) width allows you to cover huge sections of plaster or concrete rapidly, reducing arm fatigue over long shifts.
• Superior Paint Holding: The thick, high-density filament pack holds a massive amount of paint. This means fewer dips into the bucket and longer, continuous strokes on the wall.
• Smooth Release: Despite its size, the bristles are processed with fine tips to ensure the paint lays down smoothly, minimizing the heavy brush marks often associated with large tools.

Key Features

• 5-Inch (125mm) Width: The largest standard handheld brush size for maximum productivity.
• Durable Synthetic Filaments: Engineered to withstand rough surfaces like sand-faced plaster and concrete without fraying easily.
• Sturdy Handle: Features a robust handle designed to balance the weight of the large brush head, providing a secure grip.
• Secure Ferrule: A heavy-duty metal ferrule locks the bristles in place to prevent shedding, even under vigorous use.
• Versatility: Works equally well with water-based paints (distemper, emulsion) and solvent-based coatings.

Recommended Application Areas

This extra-wide paint brush is the professional’s choice for:

• Exterior Walls: Quickly coating large building facades with Ultima or Apex.
• Large Interior Walls: Speeding up the application of base coats and primers in halls and living rooms.
• Ceilings: The wide head makes cutting in large ceiling lines faster.
• Waterproofing: Excellent for spreading thick waterproofing agents over terraces and parapet walls.

How to Maintain Your Trucare 790 Brush

A large brush requires proper care to maintain its shape. Follow these steps for Asian Paints Trucare Brush 790:

1. Clean Thoroughly: Because the brush is thick, paint can get trapped near the ferrule. Wash thoroughly with water (for emulsion) or thinner (for oil paint) until the liquid runs clear.
2. Use a Brush Comb: A comb is essential for a large brush to separate the filaments and remove dried paint particles from the core. Learn more about deep cleaning large brushes.
3. Dry Correctly: Spin the brush to remove excess water and hang it bristles-down. Do not stand it on its bristles, or the weight will permanently bend them.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Is the Asian Paints Trucare Brush 790 too heavy for detail work?
A: Yes, a 5-inch brush is designed for broad coverage. For detail work or painting narrow window frames, use a 2-inch or 3-inch brush.

Q: Can I use this for applying varnish?
A: While possible for very large tables or floors, it is generally used for wall painting. For fine furniture varnishing, the 710 or 740 series usually offer better control.

Q: Does it fit in a standard paint can?
A: A 5-inch brush might be tight in a small 1-liter can. It is best used with a paint kettle, tray, or larger 4-liter/10-liter buckets.
