Overview
This brush features silicone bristles that are easy to wash with water, and quickly shed dried glue for long-lasting service. They're also spaced to hold plenty of wet glue, meaning less time dipping and more time spreading. Use the narrow dimension for edges and the wide dimension for faces. The paddle end opposite the bristles can be used like a pen for finer detail work such as mortise and tenon, dovetail, and box joints, or like a spatula for spreading glue into grooves and mortises. Also available from Rockler, the 3-Piece Silicone Glue Application Kit (#43662, sold separately).
It's easy to clean without chemical solvents - even fully dried polyurethane glue cracks and peels right off the bristles - and re-using the brush is also friendly to the environment. When it's time for a glue-up, simply riffle the bristles as you would a deck of cards to peel any dried glue off and restore the brush to pristine condition. Unlike traditional brushes, this one won't shed bristles into your bead of glue. The entire brush is waterproof, so rinsing thoroughly with warm water makes cleanup easy when glue is wet. Silicone Glue Brush measures 7" long. The tapered brush tip measures 1" wide x 1/2" deep.

I get busy and occasionally forget to clean my bristle brushes and then have to throw them away. I am hoping to break that cycle with this product.

How do you remove old glued in reed?
BEST ANSWER: Depends on the type of glue ... I only use wood glue and after it dries I simply peel it off. I have not had experience with other types of glue so not qualified to address.

Do you need this and the glue to use graphite paper while putting design on wood?
BEST ANSWER: I've never used glue for graphite paper. I would use witness or reference marks on your pattern so you can always reference it back to the same spot.

A great and useful tool, if ridiculously overpriced.
They go on sale all the time. Stock up then. This is a fantastic tool and actually worth the $5 (and I'm a really frugal), but there's no way it should cost so much. As well, you'll want to have several on hand for many reasons. It makes spreading glue evenly a dream and clean up is nearly automatic! Just let the glue dry and it almost falls off! If you need it sooner, swish it on water and pat dry. Easy!

best glue brush ever
I do alot of custom furniture and use glue alot and this has been the the best purchase I have made. I can let the glue dry on the brush or the tray and the next day peel it off with no problem and will look just like new. I have been using the same brush for months and it's just like when I got it. Buy one or two for yourself and a couple for your buddies they will thank you.

One can't quite believe that glues like titebond 3 won't stick to this brush, but they don't! You also may think that you will pull the bristles right off, but they stretch till the dried glue globs pull off instead. Spreads well, great device!

Silicone Glue Brush
I already had one for several years, but it came up missing. So I bought another one to replace it since the other one worked so well. I restore Old wood machinist chests for my old retired guy hobby. I use hide glue, which I get at Rockler, to do the repairs and to install new felt. The brush spreads the hide glue well. It's and easy clean up and lasts.
This is a Gerstner model O42 from the 60's that I restored.

I was a little bit skeptical...
I was a little bit skeptical but bought this as an impulse buy It was sitting next to the register. I figured it would work for glue but I decided to use it for 2 part epoxy. I figured that if it didn't work I was only out $3.99. We I was very happily suppressed in that the dried epoxy came right off. I was so impressed that this is the first time I have every reviewed a product.

Great brush
Had this for a few months and use it often. The rubber seems to be pretty strong and haven't lost any rubber yet.

The Best Glue Brushes - Hands Down!!!
After using acid brushes, scraps of wood, and cardboard pieces for years to spread glue on my projects, I got this glue brush as a gift.
I loved it right from the start. It spreads the glue evenly, and has the small spatula on the other end to get into tight places.
Best of all, it reusable. Just let the glue dry on the brush, and pull it off.
Love it, love it, love it!!! Well worth the money.

Best thing since glue was invented
I have purchased 10 to 15 of these brushes since they were introduced. Gave most of them at our woodworking club as door prizes. I always keep 3 on hand. These brush sticks have many uses.....I use the paddle to apply wood filler to small, and hard to get at, places. They is one thing, of many, that is used to round out my Rockler order to get free shipping.
