bristle brush
Coarse cleaning tool
A bristle brush is a brush made with stiff natural or synthetic fibers, used for painting, cleaning, or grooming.
Natural bristle brushes, typically from hog hair, work well with oil-based paints and stains: Use a bristle brush for the trim work.
The term distinguishes these from foam brushes or rollers.
