I think it's so that it's less streaky when you apply it. The brush was really bad for that, especially when the tippex got a bit old and crusty!

Tippex should be dabbed on. With the brush people tended to slosh it on and it took longer to dry and made a mound. I prefer to use Pentel Micro Correct which has a fine tip you push down to open a valve and release the fluid. It costs more but lasts much longer as no air gets into the bottle so the fluid never thickens up and you can use it up to the last drop. For larger mistakes the dry correction tapes are good as you don't have to wait for them to dry - I like the Tombow best of these but the Pentel 25 metre is good value.

to stop a mass of tippex, to spread it equally so it dries as a nice surface to write on as anyone who as applied it with a brush would tell you when they hit a little pool in the middle and make a total hash.

The bristles would go all gluggy and then it would go clumpy on the page. Not professional...now it's perfect!
