Brush quality does make a difference. Some ARE better than others
I’ve collected a good supply of painting stuff over the years and I’ve really looked after them. RULE NUMBER ONE - never lend your brushes!
Bruh who even ask for brushes
lol. yeah, nobody cleans them out properly. i even knew a painter who had a whole crew using crusty purdys with curly tips on them for interiors (and exteriors)
@@mr.extravaganja4075 People will borrow rather than buy. Step ladders, ground sheets to scrapers are expensive.
I agree. I had terrible results using a Purdy brush and several rooms later, great results with a super cheap off-brand brush. But I realized it was that my prep work, patience and skill level had greatly increased.
I'm happy you have the good courtesy to point out it's the Painter not the brush. I've painted all over the US 🇺🇸 and currently paint in central Europe. They don't even sell brushes here that we use in the States. But there are still good and not so good painters
Not sure if you can get over seas but I'm Australia the best brush make by far is monarch . All great selection great quality fair price . Make work so much easier .
My favorit: Nour. They were sold by Home Hardware under the designer series. Now I see them at home depot under the Nour name. I cut in my entire inerior and didn't loose a single bristle. Still in good shape after many cleanings.
that semi oval brush is AMAZING
As a Professional painter I use Corona and Purdy brushes….. Thanks for the video and recommendations
The nour perfect finish with the yellow bristles is the goat.
Agree, the main thing is the painters skill, but having the right tool to do the job does make a difference no matter what you are painting. As he said a less stiff brush will give better results for trim while a stiff brush with a good chisel point will work better for cutting. The skill comes in being able to paint a straight ceiling line quickly and evenly and to have the feel to "feather" the stroke for fading, for wood work, and especially artistic painting to blend colors seamlessly. Good material makes a difference too whether it is house or artistic painting.
Thank you! I agree with you!
My brother does a great job with his favorite brushes - but he has used cheapy brushes when he had to and the job still came out beautiful! He is a good painter.
I would think the paint would matter more than the brush.?
He belongs to the painters union in Boston, Ma.
Fukkin Yankees have a union for everything!
You’re welcome 😊
the painter would matter more than either, but the brush would matter more than the paint, assuming no masking involved.
Hello. I just watched a few of your videos and appreciate you sharing your knowledge about painting, cleaning, types of brushes and about the swell in the middle if left sitting in water. In this video you say it's the painter, no matter what brush is used, that accomplishes the straight line. In one of your other videos you talk about how it's not the painter necessarily, but more so the brush, or bristles and making them work for you as you cut. So now I'm confused... Haha. I know a good brush makes for a great result. Someone may think they can go purchase a dollar store brush (the ones that bristles fall out from, leaving them in your paint ext) and think this will do as good a job. I suppose it's a little bit of both...a knowledge painter and a decent brush. ?
I've got so much house that needs to be cut. And it pains me to think about the monumental task. I'll be picking up that nour brush If I can find it. Thank you
I've seen that some brushes are sold regionally. In upstate New York what I see mostly is Purdy and Wooster. I have a slew of both. For cutting in, and depending on the paint, I generally go for a Wooster Ultra Pro 2 1/2" angled sash brush. Sometimes an Alpha or Chinex. I just purchased an Arrowworthy Red Frost. I put it to the test and am quite surprised at how well it covers.
Your videos are amazing!!
Clear cut elite.(sherwin williams) Only clean it halfway the first time and let the left over paint dry in the bottoms of the bristles (set upside down while drying so handle is on bottom bristles are on top). Now you have a good stiff brush that also covers. With this brush( if cleaned per description) it doesn't matter who's using it you can cut a straight line easily
There’s no such thing as a straight line with a brush, you can get it so close where the client will never tell, but the work I do, the clients I have everything has to look perfect, a line will never be perfect unless you tapped it.
Purdy monarchs good for water base and oil base paints I've been a painter and decorater for 26 Yr
26 years and you can't spell decorator...wow.
@@monkeyface6139 👍
Bravo bonne information. J'aime beaucoup tes vidéos.
Peinture450 Alain merci :)
I love proform Picasso brushes, 9.99 for a 2.5 angle at the paint store 3 blocks from me 🤙
$28 in Canada. Great brush
Semioval is all I use anymore. Wooster alpha and proform Picasso are my go-tos. There is a semioval silverntip, as well, but if it's going to die as fast as the Picasso and cost the same, I'll take the Picasso. I should give it another shot .
Proforms contractor series brushes are great for trim and preferable to the Picasso because of its softness
mackhomie6 semi oval is all I use anymore to they hold way more paint! I use the purdy xl pip and the purdy clearcut elite semi oval. My opinion is Woosters are only good for dusters but if they work for you hey that’s great!!
@@Mylittlewhiskers223 oh bro. you're missing out, man. I'm telling you if you give them a fair shake again, it'll be the purdys in the duster heap.
if you haven't tried a silver tip, get one. don't even have to get the s.o. because they hold a ton already and you can give it a test run for ten bucks. otherwise, if you don't mind one with a ton of springiness and as firm as I'll ever use inside, get the Wooster alpha s.o. 2.5" angled.
it holds more paint than any of the purdys and draws a cleaner line, with less brush strokes because of the tip treatment (where purdys are just flagged, which sucks. )
the clear-cut skips the flagging, thankfully, and j assume the s.o. version would be passable. but the regular 2.5 clear-cut pales in comparison to a 2.5" silvertip, it just lasts longer--which, frankly, who cares?
edit: also, try a side by side to compare brush strokes with your purdy vs either of the woosters but especially the chemically treated silvertip. I've brushed metal front doors with them and have pics to show how nice it turned out
Dakota Jirsa purdy is my duster brush .. they loose shape too easy . All I use now it’s corona and Wooster pro and alpha
I love the Picasso, I get a 2.5 for 9.99 at the paint shop 3 blocks from my house, super nice lines, brushes are soft and the brush marks barely show, super easy to get corners with, and they clean out fast as fuck
Arroworthy Rembrandt
Stiff brush= good line
Agree on the Purdy Pip. Takes a lot of cleaning, tho
I like Wooster brushes the best.
Saul Rojano yeah I can’t stand purdy
Las purdy pelo azul
give me one of those purdy 3 inch swans straight and a bench and nobody can keep up with me cutting hi! I love it . still prefer my 2 and a half angle sash for any trim ,
I like the purdy clear-cut swan (block brush) 3 inch straight cut brush for walls
My go to or the pro extra flats...
Wooster pro for me . Purdy looses its shape too easy !
It's not about the size of the brush, it's the motion of the ocean
Hey, my girlfriend's always saying that. Something about at least her ex had the lotion or the potion or whatever
🤦🏾♂️
Try blaze brushes... will change how you paint. I promise you!
Couldnt agree more!
Do you have a demonstration with these paint brushes please? 😊
Cat C right here :)

There is LOTS of brushes that are better than others lol .. corona..Wooster and purdy
Great tools make a difference in skilled hands, on untrained hands they make absolutely no difference.
Esas brochas en 45 son para novatos amigo
Hi . I'm Bangla Desh.. by the brush
Hi a quick question to u , where In Canada or better in Toronto would be possible find a Rembrandt Arrowworthy brush . Thank u so much . Cheers
good👍🏻
Can you cut in with the Purdy oval?
Lol I’ve just asked this question on another video 🤷🏻♀️x
Super vidéo. Ou acheter ces pinceaux en France ? Merci de votre réponse
En afrique
That is a purdy clear cut semi oval
Hi nice video.how do you do for not left brush lines in trim.any let me know.thanks
use a very soft brush. keep a "wet edge". brushing into semi-dry paint is a big no no.
while you can paint on thick and allow the longer dry time (due to the thickness) to get the paint to self-level, you may have more success with thin coats. allow plenty of dry time.
proform contractor series brushes are the best brush you are likely to find for this, but extra soft is what you're looking for. purdy nylox is a decent second place.
this will not be the same brush you'd use to cut in along the ceiling.
I'm in Canada and don't see the Nour nature's pallette, only the brilliant finish sash brush. That work the same?
Cat C i know years ago we had to get our sales rep to get them in. Maybe check with your rep to see if he/she can do the same :)
Where can i get the Brushes?
Licensed painter? You must live in California! I'm a licensed electrician.. which I can see a need for an electrician to be licensed.. but why a painter?
Shawn Eliason the fact that you’re asking the question as to why a painter would need to be licensed is part of why I believe there is such a lack of knowledge in our industry. Most people don’t realize how much you really need to know to excel in this trade... including a lot of painters. I’m in Canada and the same organization that Licenses Electricians or Plumbers also has a program for Painting & Decorating however this license is not mandatory for our trade with the exception of a few Governmental Painting Positions or Commercial Projects in certain parts of the country. The unfortunate reality is that a lot of clients are often left hanging when a problem comes up to which the painters can’t resolve or know the solution. That’s why I do these videos :)
@Coolride17 how much gross revenue are you doing?
0:54 to a degree it’s not the brush. Bet if I bought a dollar store brush vs a Purdy or Wooster you’d tell the difference 😉
Neither brush is available here in the U.K.
Well, we have Hamilton and Harris. Also, look up Axus. They seem good.
Bought the Whizz from lowes in a pinch. What a crappy brush😂
I will tell you the brush does matter. About them purdy’s, “they Purdy much suck!”
That Purdy semi oval is good for dusting 😂 it’s shit.
If you ever introduce yourself and you have to repeat yourself more than once. Try enunciating your name so its repeatable. I replayed your introduction multiple times and even slowed the video down and still could not understand your name. Thank you
Walt Wilhelm it’s french ;) Remi Boudreau
I laughed the first time and knew it was pointless to ask the Frenchman again. I also knew there there was a cinnamon roll still on the counter. One is no longer true and the other one I ate, after much bargaining and pleading. Sure hope that cinnamon roll is still there.
7y to 7y to ugh up yi
