The answer depends on the type of paint you plan to use. Natural bristle and synthetic brushes may be used with oil-based paints. Only synthetic bristle brushes should be used with latex or acrylic paints. (The water in latex or acrylic paints takes the oils out of natural bristles and they become unmanageable).
