You have no idea how much I appreciate your explanations on what to expect from all the tools you use!! Love your channel, and this is one of your best demo’s by far - keep ‘em coming!
Thank you
Hey Chris, do a lot of phenomenal painting on my own, but I must say, I'm constantly looking to improve and your knowledge has absolutely allowed that! Much obliged and keep doing what you do brotha!
Thanks for your good videos I have learned a lot you've taken my painting skills to a new high.
I’ve been painting for over 10 years now, I watched your videos on different paint brushes that you’ve used, which people think are the best cut and brushes. But by far what I have noticed through trial and error, is the corona Shelby 2 1/2 inch angled brush beats all of those. It holds paint longer, has a straighter edge line, and is way more durable. Love your video’s.
they clean out easy too : )
Man your videos are very helpful. I paint everyday and have for years but I sure learn alot from you/yall man keep up tha helpful videos
Hello Ideho Painter , the small brusch you youse is the one we do cut ins all the time in france . Its realy good for all kinds of nice paint works on al surfaces. God bless your paint academy
i perseonly try the purdy clear cut , not easy the first time , for me only good for sealing cut ins. Thanks Thierry
in my opinion, for me, I can adjust to any professional-grade brush. But my go-to was the Chinex 3" oval by Corona. I think that as long as the brush is truly a professional grade brush, a painter can conform and make it work. Surprisingly, there was a brush called Picasso that worked exceptionally well for a budget brush.
Kris, thanks for your efforts to improve the professionalism our industry.
I've worked alongside a thousand men and three women. I've learnt something off all of them.
Please be the first American to join the rest of the world after lockdown and use
63 and 75mm ( millimetre ) brushes. You may just like it.
I've been painting 20+ years and I think the Whizz brush is the best. It also cleans up and keeps its shape nicely. The Whizz roller covers are great also.
Thanks the review on those brushes, Kris. I wanted to give that wedge brush a try for a long time but I tend to shy away from bold claims. I personally perfer the Corna Cortez 3 inch for cut in, moved from FTP Wooster which is still a good brush just too stiff for interiors but best on Exteriors. The Cortez brush handles are made of birch which doesn't swell up with water and holds good pant and the filaments are a perfect blend like Premier. I've also used PPG paints I'm a fan of, I'm not too crazy about Timeless, one the price point on the higher end and it is splattery I perfer using Diamond, I get really good results and the price is very competitive.
Thanks a lot for this video. It's just what I need right now from all the coronavirus on the web and all the commotion that's been going on 👍👍👍
I started using the wedge about a year ago when I started my painting company, I have found I just like the feel of it for my painting style, I can cut in really cleanly and quickly, I like the weight of it, it helps with fatigue when you’re working long hours. The price point is also something I like about it. Im only human and I ruin a brush from time to time so if I ruin one of these it’s not too bad to replace it.
Love the content. Thank you for the info
Hello pal 😁 thanks for the great vids on tools and products. I'm in the UK and have been a deccy since the day I could hold a brush. Your videos are awesome informative 😁💯
Thanks for your support
Round brushes are all we use in Holland! Once you get used to it it works just fine.
I would like to give one of the american brushes a try for cutting in walls. Thanks for giving me some guidance!!
I just recently switched to oldfeilds brushes from Wooster. I don't think I'll ever leave oval brushes now !
Nice vid! I found that if a brush “points” well it makes for a good cut in brush. Purdy used to do that but their quality got taken down a lot after they were bought. The ability of the brush to come to a point with a 45 degree on the nose of it when you put forward pressure is what I mean by pointing. This keeps you from having to put twist actions on the brush to detail corners and help control the line on the straight lines.
Your strategy of going with one brush is a good one because you can get very skilled at handling technique details and not having to sort it out with all the variations. Since you do exteriors and interiors picking one that works for both is pretty a pretty sound idea. All you have to do is register the variations in paint viscosity and get your game together under changing temper conditions and you have a great efficiency base that just improves over time.
Square pointing brushes are a total non starter for me. I am going to give those montocks a try for sure.
Thank you! Informative
I stand by the PPG TIMELESS! It’s a good quality paint at a decent price. I like it better than the Behr Marquee brand, and it’s a bit less expensive and better in my opinion. Paint on and paint strong! God bless and Thank you 🙏
I have I triangle brush with and angle shash if he had it for months and finally used it it's great.
What was the color you were painting with? Looks fantastic.
What’s do you do first cut in or roll the walls and then cut in??
I use that wiz wedge all the time, definitely wish they had a 3 in for walls, I use the 21/2 for semigloss latex a 2 inch sash for oil. Love them
Thanks for sharing!
I always used Purdy/Wooster saw the whizz figured I'd try it, by far one of my favorites better then those others, it held up longer, got longer strokes
I’ve been watching your channel for sometime now and you sold me on the purdy 3” xl nylon/polyester med brush. Now you state it’s not a good thing?? 🤔
I like using a 3" straight brush for cutting in walls just personal preference. 2 1/2" angled for ceilings and trim
Chris, We have the Premier brushes, Staalmeester..that Johnny Dayter and I have both used.I used the Wizz Wedge too. My favorite is the Wooster blue lable stiff. Agreed.. the brush has to hold the paint and make a good line. Can't be shedding bristles etc. Agreed softer bristle brushes used for different applications. Staalmeester is excellent brush for the right application. We like Premier and Australian Oldfield brushes too. Arroworthy has a good line too. Great to test them all out to see what you like best:)Nice informational video. Pres. / Owner of JHCPAINTING (40 years of quality painting)
what kind of pants are those
? looking for some good insert knee pad ones. thanks
Uohhh Nice tools, thank's for sharing
2 1/2 half inch angled is all I've ever used. 50 years old now and don't think I can go any other way at this point. Never used a bucket and grid though. My wife and I are at a point in our lives when the kids don't like us and we have the time and money to refresh the home. Is the bucket method "that" beneficial?? Subscribed, you folks have a load of great content on this channel. Cheers, from Canada!
My favorite cut in brush is a 3 inch square nylon. The angle brushes were introduced because too many homeowners had a hard time with a square cut.
I always ran a bristle width of wall color on the ceiling.
Thanks for sharing!
The round brush is great for small trim baseboards.the stinger is a great brush cleans very easy
Would you do a review on the paint liner edging kit...
I've tried pretty much every brand and type of brush out there like Wooster , Corona , Purdy , Arroworthy etc but my current favourite is the Australian brand... Monarch Oval Sash Cutter brushes . i use a 2.5" or 3" , definitely the best brush i've used for cutting ceiling lines.
Still monarch fan over everything else?
Monarch advance brushes are great 👍🏴
I’ve been in the game for a while and can’t let my Wooster ultra pro firm go.
Um okay but what brush do you prefer that isnt in this list? What is your go to brush please?
The whiz wedge is where it’s at and less than $10? I don’t think he tried it long enough. Once that thing gets really loaded I can cut like 2’ at a time.
it's good to use pure bristles in your emulsions and on exterior masonry's to brake them in before using them in oil's.
Out of all the purdy brushes, you pick the high cap, what about the clearcut elite or the blue pro?
And you rolled a walled out before cutting?
I see a few spots were you hit the ceiling, and spots were you didnt get close enough to it?
Weird just saying.
If cut a white ceeling with flat white using a corner brush, then roll my ceeling Then cut my white walls with white eggshell, then roll e.t.c will there be a demarcation at the top of my walls from the ceeling cut that was made with the corner brush ? can you answer aswell in the context of adding colors instead of white. thank you:)
I wish this guy would try out this brush for me it's made from whizz answer Black Max series honestly it looks kind of gimmicky but I'm wondering how they perform to be honest
Why do you cut in after rolling?
Do you have to cut in with a brush if you are paint spraying the entire house?
From the PPG I’ve used, they always seem to be better for spraying than rolling/brushing. Really loose paint, but good hides. It’s gentle in my sprayer and comes out easy.
angled or straight brush when cutting in?
Hey Chris, i am a professional painter and i do perfect cuttin and the brush i used is wooster pro nylon/polyester or wooster pro polyester.
you're missing out. try the semioval Wooster alpha. thank me later.
The owner of the first biz i worked for 27 years ago did not let me touch a brush for I don’t know how long. It was all about learning prep. When he felt I was ready he handed me a 4” square brush (he called it a block brush) and said “ if you learn to cut with this you can cut with anything”.
It was frustrating as hell but man did it teach me. I imagine it being similar to an athlete training with weights strapped to their limbs. Once those weight come off-LOOK OUT!
How come you don't use a 18in roller
Do you sell other brushes than premier?
Try the Wooster Gold Edge in the 3" semioval angle sash. Best brush I've ever used.
I've used it. I like the silver way better.
Did you use proform blaze oval? I just started using it and im amazed. I used before a lot of purdy
I tried some wooster
Wooster Gold Edge Semi-oval or a decent 3 inch flat brush ,first cut in allow 1-2 mm to the ceilling and the second coat will go fast and perfect ,if you cut in first up to the ceilling the second coat will touch the ceilling ,thats why many decorstors think cutting in is mission impossible, cutting in is like making love ,sorry bro to get into your comment section with my shoes on lol but I love this trade as much as you do ,all the best for future your product is very nice to watch
Thanks for sharing Petru
Please keep this type of video coming
I'll have to give premier montauk a try. I can't find a decent brush. I'm not a big fan of Purdy or Valspar. But it's about all I can buy locally in my small town.
I love my whizz wedge brush ,I have 2 now
I don’t usually paint but I recently cut in an entire new house. I can cut in kinda straight but what was frustrating me a lot was that the back bristles on the brush that’s making the line pushed a bead of paint infront of the bristles so that my lines were straight but the edge was built up and not flat. Does anyone know why that happens? I was so frustrated cause that paint that was being pushed sometimes bridged over to the trim then I had to wipe it off the trim and redo it. Any advice or video you can recommend i watch to help me deal with that?
Thin out the paint a little
2:05 that's the kind we use in western europe ( not UK ) the most. in french we call it "rechampir" wich means "to cut in". cheers
David Callens I’m French and a painter. Have you tried the blaze proform? What’s your favorite brush
@@benjamindelannee3501 bonjour,
I have not tried the proform blaze but I bought a set of proform picasso on ebay 2-3 years ago... probably the best quality i have tried so far! The bristles are one of my favourites, and overall the build quality is really solid. Ideal for water or solvent borne paints. Salutations de la Belgique
David Callens look up the proform blaze oval angled, a lot of people like them better then Picasso. Very similar
I've never had a Purdy brush have any bristles come out.I'm not a pro but have done a lot of painting.
I've never had a Purdy lose bristles. I have a feeling he might have bought his from some guy in a white panel van that also sells speakers.
For the past 17 years Ive used a 2 1/2” flat edge for cutting in. I only use an angle for sash. Purdy used to be good brushes until they got bought out.
I totally agree, can't understand what the heck happened so I'm back to Premier or Coronas.
They used to be hand made and got bought by Sherwin Williams. They incrementally destroyed the quality of the brushes. I’ll never forgive them for that. Mess around with paint all you want but messing up high quality tools says way more about them than even ProMar400.
Awesome video Chris, at the end of the day I think it comes down to what feels comfortable in a painter's hands in my opinion.
If those brushes cost $21.50 in America, they will cost at least $40 dollars in my country.
How long does one decent brush last and how many houses have you completed with a single brush???
You are correct
@@Idahopainter That wasn't a good answer. I'm interested in that information too, care to share how long a brush *should* last for - if properly cared for?
PURDY HAS CLEAR CUT!!!For cutting, the one you used high capacity, its more likely when brushing a lot of areas ,(doors,cabs,etc)
Purdy is garbage
Paint Life TV I thought that used to be your go to a couple years ago
@@Idahopainter Actually the Purdy ClearCut Elite angled in both normal and oval are fantastic. Everything you said that sucked abvout the purdy in this video, the clearcut elite does properly.
Purdy has a brush for everything
@@Idahopainter whoa harsh
richards are cool burshes but id never use them for cutting in ceiling lines mostly just for trim or narrow corners between door frames
Please give this brushes name .
What brush is the best for trim molding. Especially working with Benjamin Moore advance paint
Premier Hampton
store.theidahopainter.com
Paint Life TV thx
The Proform Picasso 2.5" sash (The Bull) is my favourite cutting brush.
Premier is my favorite
Picasso is to soft and springy!
Did you try proform blaze?
@@slowjamcdub you have commented on way too many saying this same bs
Have you tried a Proform Picasso or a blaze brush
I have and it's fantastic compare with purdy cleancut elite
I cut the colour just use stick only... Use the stand up make a hard to look the line and slow
Hey man I hear your experience.
I'm painting our house. The trim the walls everything. I've been watching lots of vids. I constantly watch UA-cam vids. People constantly recommend Purdy brushes. I've bought these from Sherman Williams and Home Depot. I've found that all those brushes paint really rough. I have maybe 15 $15-$20 brushes. Purdy has been the worst. Maybe I'm not finding the higher quality brushes. I've had good success with Zibra and Wooster brushes. Still on the hunt for something better. I'm going to try the Whizz and see how that goes
Have u tried harbor freight s avanti paint brushes.
I tried it and it's garbage. Save your money
Corona Kingston or Tacoma in chinex for seriously straight cuts. Oil or latex
Yep
Been at it for 35 years or so. Do not care for PPG products. My fav int wall paints are BM Aura and R Select Matte. Also like S Williams Cashmere low luster and flat. I like French point sash brushes for furniture.
Corona red gold 2 1/2 or 3 inch angled sash is a good quality cut-in brush. Works well with pretty much every int paint
(IP is my favorite on line painter Dude)
Rembrandt 2 1/2 oval 63.5 mm awesome cut in brush
I found Whizz brushes last year and love them for cutting in. Not a bad price point either.
Whizz paint brushes
Hi! Can I ask why you use brushes for this and not a hand held sprayer?
There is a time and place for everything
@@Idahopainter thanks. I can understand an airless machine would be more time consuming for a single room. But a handheld airless device like the Graco would still come out on top speed wise wouldn't it? I have never used that type of airless sprayer before (although considering one). Are there factors besides time taken?
Try a Picasso , 2 1/2 Angle Oval, Best I've used So far. Imho
The Picasso is to soft and springy!!!
Did you try proform blaze oval?
I never used a cuted brush neither the rounded one but it's time to be better,I will buy a cilindric brush ,seems like does better thank profe!
Hi. You keep saying you prefer a 3 inch brush, may I ask why that is?
Only possible reason would be because it holds more paint
Great tips thank you
For the most part , a talented painter could cut in well with any of the above. Most times it is not the brush but the technique behind the brush.
Thank you i'm 20 yrs in a could cut in with a old mop.
@@danielwalker5501 I'm 12 and I cut in with my wig.
I'm 8 years in and I could cut with a spoon
A great brush wont make a bad painter good. A bad brush wont make a good painter bad.
oh no doubt you can cut in with anything but I like a soft bristle brush especially with oil and trim because you don't get all those brush marks
Decent choices
Monarch advance FOR THE WIN!
We use only the rond one in Europe
The round brush is called a "Sash" brush in the UK, used not for cutting in walls but sash window frames and door frame/skirting edges, PS don't rotate it just draw a line like a pencil.
I noticed you didn't acclimate your brush in the corner of the room first before you cut in. Makes life easier.
Purdy Clearcut was always my favorite.
The round brush is called a sash brush and is used to paint sash windows, doorframe and alcatraves
Nice
@@Idahopainter I found the piccasso chisel tip brushes are the best even for skirting boards. Any sort of satin or gloss finish on wood work sash brush is the best
The Whizz Wedge💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
👍
Purdy clearcut ultra elite is the best but I can cut with just about any brush. Just have to take my time.
Purdy clearcut ultra elite i used for many years. But i receive a fantastic brush. Its proform blaze oval. U have to try it
Purdy chinex, and Benny Moore advance. Water borne oil paint, the best.
I’m liking the new oils
Advance... nice trim work paint, good for spraying as well.
I don't know if you have equivalent to the United States, in France you can find radiator brushes or "a bec de cannard"
We do
@@Idahopainter all your video are very interesting..thank you for that
Hi chris I'm Chris with Flawless painting llc lexington ky we use timeless alot and love it. I use a nylon bristled brush for interior slick walls I try to stay away from polyester bristles
geez it cut off my whole comment . I will try it again , but much shorter this time in case it does it again . After trying a whole bunch of different brushes I have come back to the Picasso and the brush I use for residential cut ins . There is likely a lot of personal preference involved when professionals talk about their favorite brush , but for me the Picasso's hold more paint, cut in very sharp and save me time and money on my jobs. The only downside is that the orange filament does wear out pretty quick . After , say a 4 or 5000 sq ft repaint I throw it in the trash and start the next job with a fresh brush. If you lay off lightly with your last stroke of the cut in then carrying a cut bucket with a mini roller in it is completely unnecessary . Especially if you roll the wall out while the the cut in is still wet you would be rolling over where you rolled the mini roller anyway . Learning to lay off the cut in with your brush instead of switching tools and carrying around a bunch of stuff in your cut bucket will save you a lot of time. I suppose there is some preference here, but, - often when I am doing repaints I see that , while the previous painter may have rolled two coats on the wall , and even done two cut ins along the door and window trim , they often only do one coat on the ceiling cut in . I alway do two coats on all the cut ins. - but I have still to meet a client who has noticed that their previous cut in was light at the ceiling cut in . Especially with higher ceiling , people just don't notice, and can't tell the difference . I think this guy explains why using the mini roller to roll into your brush cut is unnecessary pretty well , and he also convinced me to order a couple of the Picasso flat wall brushes as well , ua-cam.com/video/CywkPwkK-tU/v-deo.html. Also Chris , I notice that you still have the $100 brush for sale in your store and I am curious about your reasoning behind offering it to your viewers?
I find it easier to cut ceiling lines, if I'm right handed, by going to my right not cutting across my chest. rolling to.
Good tip Dean
I'm honestly shocked that Wooster Silver Tips weren't in the video, Purdy's quality has severely declined.
They are OK
Worcester silver tips are the best bang for the buck. Smooth as anything. Problem is the only last a few jobs before they turn to crap. At 8 to 9 bucks a brush how could you go wrong though.
Been seeing that stinger brush on Instagram it looked like a crappy marketing scheme
Do you really cut in like that or are you playing?
Good question
It’s good see that John Malkovich landed on his feet since that acting thing wasn’t working out.
The 3" purdy swan pro extra stiff is all you need
Not all I need
Blue bris purdy stiff
So round sash brushes are definitely not for cutting in walls,they’re for trim,architraves etc.
Is that what the manufacturers say?
@@Idahopainter well...
From my experience with them they’re not stiff enough or hold enough paint to cut in ceilings
But they’re really good for trim and Georgian/french style doors and windows
As per manufacturers recommendations I never go by what they say,they’ll tell you that and angle sash brush is for cutting in ceilings.Which is definitely not what an angle sash brush is for either,although some people strangely prefer them.Straight cut or block style wall brushes are for walls.
Thought you were a Purdy clearcut guy for the longest. What happened and why did that change? Was it a sponsorship thing?
I was going to ask the same exact thing.
I thought your go to brush was a 3" Purdy Clearcut.
Purdy has gone downhill seems like mostly general contractors still gung-ho about purdy not actual painters my last few clear cut elite purdy brushes sucked I would clean them out and switch back to a cheap home Depot Wooster
Yes sir. I Remember him taking about the clearcut a lot back In the day. I’m a corona guy myself but they aren’t cheap but I keep up with them and get my money worth out of them. Was never sure why he liked them so much. Haven’t used a Purdy since I picked up a corona about 8 years ago. I do like the Picasso oval brush tho they hold a ton of paint and they are cheap.
Purdy 3" clear-cut elite best there is
Its good but not that good
@@Idahopainter give me your favorite I will slide it down some sheetrock and check it out.
2:01 - That's a sash brush.
Over the years I found out that Chinex bristle brush by Wooster are the best and cut the straightest in my experience.
