Brush
an instrument used for painting, or for removing dirt by light rubbing, from floors, furniture, etc. They are generally made of hair, bristles, or whalebone, and are divided into two classes-simple and compound. Simple brushes are composed of a single tuft, and compound brushes consist of several tufts inserted in a handle. Painters' brushes are examples of the former, and ordinary hair brushes of the latter. The smaller kinds of simple brushes are known by the name of pencil, and are made of camel or sable hair, inserted in quills of different sizes. Compound brushes are so made that a number of tufts are inserted into holes perforated at regular distances in the back, or stock of the handle.
