Painting Tool of the Future? I Had to Try It

What happens here

Upon initiating painting, the presenter expresses frustration with the brush's feel, stating it's not how one would naturally paint with a brush. He notes that the filaments are too soft, requiring significant effort to work the paint onto the surface. This leads to an exhausting and inefficient application process. He speculates that stiffer filaments or thinner products like oil-based semi-transparent stains might perform better, but acknowledges the synthetic nature of the filaments would contradict this for such products.

Goal: The presenter begins applying paint to a shed wall, but immediately encounters difficulties with the brush's handling and the soft filaments, which make it challenging to control and effectively spread the paint.

They need to be stiffer. Um maybe if it was like um a thin oil-based semi-transparent or transparent stain, but then they're synthetic filament, so that wouldn't make any sense. I mean, this whole the whole idea, the concept of a continuous feed brush is something, you know, we've needed something like this for a lot of years. See, this is like here, this an airless sprayer would be able to just spray in all this stuff. Um Whoa. Shoot. You got to really be
