Chiqueteur
“This brush pays for itself on it's first job." -P. Finkelstein
The Rolls Royce of faux marble brushes, the chiqueteur [sheik-ter] is the most often used brush in painting backgrounds for faux marble and stone finishes. Put down that sea sponge and keep your hands clean with the chiqueteur. You can depend on ultimate controlled randomness with this specialty brush, unlike the common sea sponge that leaves a similar print every time. Available in 2 sizes (size 10 is most popular).
