Best type of paint brush for creating streaking effects

I have to agree with Fergie, and likely everyone else who has gotten just the effect you want, but not when and where we wanted it. <br /> <br />I suggest you select the appropriate width brush for the job at hand...say from 1/8 to 1 inch in width...of the cheapest flat blunt nylon brush you can find and cut it down to an appropriate stiffness and thin to limit the amount of paint it will hold. Should give the effect you want. <br /> <br />Alternately you can paint a base coat in the desired color and over coat it with the finish color and use a "scratch brush" on the over coat. <br /> <br />Good Luck <br /> <br />Randy
