How to Cut In PERFECT Ceiling Lines | Straight, Clean, and Professional Results with a Brush

What happens here

To keep your paint brush clean and easily accessible while working, avoid resting it directly inside the paint bucket where it can get covered in paint or potentially fall in. Instead, use a brush holder, such as a magnetic holder or a hook-style brush clip, to suspend the brush just outside the bucket. This prevents paint from drying on the handle or dripping back into the fresh paint, and ensures it's always ready for your next stroke.

Goal: Keep paint brushes clean and easily accessible during painting.

Captain Zack with the apprenticeship. I got a bonus tip for you today. Uh, when cutting in, I like to hold my my brush out of the bucket like this for a couple of reasons. It's out of the bucket so it's not going to get paint all over it. Cuz if you do that, sometimes it falls in. Um, it's nice and secure. It's not going anywhere. And I got easy access to it if I'm going to go and cut in. [Music]
