Speedball Deluxe Soft Rubber Brayer, 2-Inch

I am preferring to use the softer rollers on my gelli plates as they make better contact with the paint. Speedball is one of the few companies that make a well shaped handle. Id prefer wood, but plastic is easier to clean and maintain.

solidly made.

works great with the Akua ink I have been playing with.

Speedball can’t be beat

I use it with my Cricut explorer projects. Works great.

Tried and true. Good quality rubber, priced for the hobbyist, but used by the professional. I have several sizes of these and use them daily.

As expected

It was pretty much a better using this on a gelli plate when you realize the edges leave marks!

Nice and doing for embossing ink

This cute little grayer is really holding up to a lot of abuse. I originally started using these for block printing, and it is great for that, but am now beating it up while painting with oils. Nice & soft, but not so soft you can’t add pressure, this brayer has surprised me with how many uses I am finding for it. When painting with oil & CWM, it’s a champ! I can fuse layers, blend paint layers (the difference us in how wet the paint, how thick & how you roll). There are a surprising number of effects I can get that have been un-expected, discovered while playing around.
