The Roubloff DS43R is a series of elite "striper" or "liner" brushes, specifically engineered for the creation of flawless, elongated lines and intricate geometric patterns. Crafted for professional nail technicians, these brushes use high-performance synthetic fibers that offer the perfect amount of tension and flexibility for gel polish designs.
Brush Highlights
-
The Line Specialist: Designed specifically for pulling long, steady lines without the "skidding" or "shaking" common with shorter brushes.
-
High-Quality Synthetic Hair: These non-porous fibers allow gel to glide effortlessly, maintaining a crisp edge and preventing the product from clogging the bristles.
-
Stability & Control: The extra length of the hair acts as a stabilizer—as you move the brush, the tail follows the head in a perfectly straight path.
-
Ergonomic Birch Handle: Features the signature lightweight, solvent-resistant birchwood handle for maximum comfort during high-precision work.
Size Guide & Technical Specifications
The DS43R line offers three distinct lengths to accommodate different design scales.
Note on Model Numbers: While the line is DS43R, the specific manufacturer codes for these striper lengths are categorized under the DS6 sequence:
| Size | Model Number | Best Use Case |
| #5/0 | DS6-02,0RN | Shortest Striper: Ideal for tiny geometric details and short, thin lines. |
| #00 | DS6-03,0RN | Medium Striper: Versatile for most French lines and medium-length swirls. |
| #0 | DS6-04,0RN | Longest Striper: Maximum stability for long, full-nail stripes and sweeping curves. |
Why Use a Striper Instead of a Detailer?
-
Gravity & Tension: The length of the DS43R allows the brush to "lay down" the gel. This creates a more uniform thickness across the entire line compared to a short detail brush.
-
Product Loading: Striper brushes hold a larger "reservoir" of gel along the length of the hair, allowing you to complete a long line in a single stroke without having to stop and reload.
Care and Maintenance
-
Clean with Base Gel: Never use pure acetone on these synthetic fibers. Gently work a clear base gel or specialized brush cleanser through the hair and wipe on a lint-free pad.
-
Pull Straight: When cleaning, always wipe from the ferrule to the tip in a straight motion to avoid bending or splaying the long fibers.
-
Horizontal Storage: Store flat to ensure the long hairs do not take on a permanent "curve" or bend.
