homeowner tips Paint brush tips

When it comes to painting, many people will buy the big package of brushes for $7. But the bristles on these brushes may be coarse or could fall out. In addition, they can end up looking ratty after a while and the paint won’t spread evenly. The key is to buy a good quality brush and clean it properly as specified on the label. And if you have a big job and find yourself having to paint in intervals, you can wrap your wet brushes in kitchen wrap. Place the oil-based brushes in the freezer and the latex-based in the fridge. When the job has been completed, you can then clean them and put them away. In many cases a good brush will last for dozens of paint jobs.
