Warum
Household emulsion is generally synthetic, but specialist finishes, milk paint and shellac primers are not. Synthetic-bristle brushes perform as well as animal hair for almost every job.
Worauf man auf dem Etikett achten sollte
- The ingredient list on your own pack — Paint and brushes recipes differ by country and change over time
- Milk, whey, casein, lactose, egg, honey, gelatin, carmine (E120) and shellac (E904) in the list
- "May contain milk" is an allergen cross-contamination note, not an ingredient — most vegans still buy it

Häufig gestellte Fragen
Is Paint and brushes certified vegan?
Certification is separate from the recipe. Many products with no animal ingredients carry no vegan mark because the maker will not rule out shared production lines. Check the pack for a registered vegan trademark, and treat the ingredient list as the primary evidence.
Does the answer change between countries?
Often, yes. The same brand name can use different fats, emulsifiers, colours or whey depending on the plant that made it, so always read the local label rather than an answer written for another market.
