    looking for source for bulk foam brushes

    I've tested the Harbor Freight foam brushes but they started to break up on me as I used them to spread some Poly. I am looking for good quality that I can buy in bulk. Where do you buy yours from? Home depot etc has those bags but they mix in a bunch of sizes I don't want. thnx Steve
