The Royal & Langnickel Jumbo Flat Brush Size 60 is one of the largest brushes in the Jumbo range — built for artists who work big. Extra-stiff bone taklon bristles deliver the backbone needed to push heavy-body oil and acrylic paint across vast surfaces with control and confidence. At size 60, this is a serious tool for muralists, large canvas painters, and anyone covering significant ground quickly.
The flat shape at this scale is unmatched for blocking in broad areas, creating clean geometric edges, and applying thick, expressive paint in wide sweeping strokes. The extra-stiff bone taklon holds its shape under heavy paint loads and springs back reliably, maintaining performance across long painting sessions. The kiln-dried 7-inch hardwood handle and nickel-plated brass seamless ferrule complete a robust, professional brush built to last.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does size 60 compare to size 30?
Size 60 is significantly larger than size 30 — double the size number roughly equates to a substantially wider brush face. The R765-60 is suited to very large canvases, murals, and backgrounds where maximum coverage is the priority. If you need a large brush for bold work but not at full mural scale, the R965-30 Filbert may be more versatile.
What is the flat shape best for at this scale?
At size 60, the flat shape excels at blocking in large areas of colour, covering backgrounds efficiently, applying thick paint in broad gestural strokes, and creating clean straight edges on large format work. It is the brush of choice for muralists and large-format painters who need maximum coverage per stroke.
What paints work best with this brush?
The extra-stiff bone taklon is engineered for heavy-body paints — thick acrylics, oil colours straight from the tube, and any paint with a buttery or heavy consistency. It is too stiff for thin washes or watercolour; for those, choose a medium gold taklon from the R705 series instead.
How do I clean this brush?
For acrylic, clean with water while the paint is still wet. For oil paint, clean with white spirit or turpentine followed by brush soap and warm water. The stiff synthetic fibres handle thorough cleaning robustly. Always reshape the bristles and store flat or bristle-end up.
