I recently received this unknown brush and in cleaning and getting it ready for use I noticed some white residue around the base of the knot that looked like built up soap. As I plucked this away, I realized that it may actually have been white caulk that was used to seal the gap around the knot base. So I continued and finished cleaning out the gunk and am now left with a fairly large gap at the base. The knot still feels solid and tight in the handle, so I don't think it was doing anything to hold it in place.
Question: Should this gap be filled or sealed? Use some silicone caulk or similar?
I've seen threads detailing how to replace a knot, but none specific to this issue. Thanks.
PS: Any idea what kind of knot/brush this might be? Some black markings on the handle, but nothing legible as it has all been worn away.
