Who Makes Blue Hawk Paint Brushes

Working as a Paint Department Manager, I felt it was important for me to be knowledgeable in regards to the paint brushes we carry and why one brand may be better than another.

If you’ve ever stood in front of the paint brush section trying to figure out which brush you need, it can be overwhelming. If you were a customer standing in my paint brush aisle, you would see two, 4 foot sections of name brand paint brushes. One section is Purdy and the other section is Wooster. Both companies manufacture high quality brushes, but there are differences between them. Lets start with Purdy…

One thing that’s very unique about Purdy Paint Brushes is that they’re all made by hand. In fact, each brush has a sticker with the name of the person that made it, which is something that no other company does. In addition, Purdy is a brand that both professionals and do-it-yourselfer’s like to use. Nonetheless, lets get into detail about their series of brushes.
