(2,376 characters)Now I'm going to talk about how I actually hold the brush in my bucket when I'm actually doing my back rolling with my roller. So once I got my cut in done with my brush up there a length uh usually about twice as much as is that then I go back and back roll it with my roller. And when I'm back rolling it, I don't want my brush to be inside my bucket of paint cuz then it's going to get paint all over the brush and it's going to get all messy and and make a big mess. So, I actually hold my brush with my bucket just like this. So, I got the brush got my bucket in one hand and I'll show you right here. My brush is held with this finger and my thumb secured in the bucket just like that. So, it's held with these two fingers right here. So, I secure my bucket with the two my first three fingers right here in the handle. And then I put my brush inside there and it hangs right in the middle. I'll try to give you a little bit better view once I get up this ladder what that looks like. But now I can sit there and load up my roller and then do my back brushing or back rolling. So when I go to put my roller inside my bucket, all I do is just tilt my brush to the side and then I can hang or actually load my roller up. You always want to have a roller that has a roller frame that has some type of hooks that you can actually hook your roller on the inside of your bucket. Just like that, so your roller can hang while you're actually using your brush and doing your cut ends with your brush. So once again, I'm going to load up my brush, just dip it in my paint, pat it on the sides. Now I can actually bring it up using the method that I just showed you how to do the cut ends. And I'll take my brush, get it about a/2 inch from the ceiling, work it up to my ceiling. I'm going to cut one way. And then I'll cut the opposite way to fill it in. And then I'm going to look at that and make sure that it's all completely filled in. If I miss a spot or anything, there's a little spot right here that I didn't cover. I can go back cut that in. And then once I do about a two-foot section, I'm just going to back roll it with my roller so it will blend in with my wall. And the whole back rolling process, why I actually back roll it, I explained in a previous video that I did doing ceiling cutins that you can check out at the end of this video. I'm going to give you one
