What happens here

The presenter raises concerns about the silicone cover's ability to allow the paint brush to dry completely. He points out the small holes in the cover designed for air circulation but questions their effectiveness. He then compares this method to his preferred traditional methods: either hanging brushes exposed in a truck or using breathable paper covers, both of which ensure brushes dry overnight. He also notes a practical drawback: the cover obscures whether the brush is an angled sash or flat sash type.

Goal: Highlight potential drying issues and compare the silicone cover to traditional methods.

Tools and materials

Paint brush — The item needing to dry
Paper covers — Alternative method for covering and drying brushes, allowing breathability

handle comes up through the top slips in there now your brush sits in there so it has holes for it to dry out when i'm done it just comes off is my brush going to dry out because it has to in order to have it stiffness again the next day so i'm concerned you know it gets air right there gets air on the sides i'm gonna hang it in my truck so we typically wash them I hang them up top the next day they'll be dry and is this actually going to be dry tomorrow silicone's not only for the kitchen apparently but let's put it to the test because if the brush doesn't dry i'd rather hang them up there outside of the covers well i'd rather use paper covers because paper covers are breathable and the brushes will still dry the other thing is you can't tell if it's angled sash or flat sash so i'm not sure about that i'll spend two days now i just pulled the silicone brush cover out the question is is it's still wet
