Brushes

There is nothing like a good brush. Don't ever waste your money on a cheap brush, unless you want to make your painting career a stressful, struggling, short-lived mess.

When it comes to latex brushes, I like to use a 3" angled sash Purdy pink bristled Nylox Glide. This is the best brush on the market for latex paints as far as I am concerned.

I've used many other brushes and the Nylox Glide with the angle sash cut is the most versatile. If you are a homeowner looking for a good paint brush that will last the rest of your life, get that pink bristled Nylox Glide and keep it clean.

I will soon be loading a video on how to take care of your brushes.
