What is the best paint brush to use when cutting in?

When cutting in it is important to choose a high-quality angled bristle paint brush rather than a flat one. Using an angled paint brush will help to work into smaller, tricky areas and will allow you to manoeuvre the brush a lot better.

How to clean your paint brush after you've finished using it?

Looking after your paint brush is super important if you want it to last longer than a few jobs. Quality paint brushes improve with use and this is the case for most bristle brushes. Below are a couple of helpful tips to remember when looking after your paint brush: 

  • Once you have finished using your paint brush, clean thoroughly after with warm soapy water (water based paints)
  • If you are using solvent based paints, they will require a purpose-made solvent remover. 
  • Work the cleaning liquid through the paint brush bristles until the paint has become loose. 
  • Once all the excess paint has been removed and once your paintbrush has dried, place it back into it's original packaging so that it keeps its shape
