No matter *what* brush you're using, I'd still test it carefully (probably using magnification if you're planning to use it dry).

Toothbrushes? Yikes...the softest I've ever used are the "soft" version of the natural-bristle ones, *much* softer than synthetic bristles (eh...forget who makes them, they're available at the Vermont Country Store). And those will absolutely mar paint if used dry; under 15X it's a real horror-show. My oldest one is so soft it's hard to believe it'll do that kind of damage, but it does..
