Cutting in brush

Erm yeah that’s hard to pick one · 2 Jul 2020 at 08:43

Looks to be rather wet for next few days so going to pain the landing.
Would like a decent cutting in brush.

What does everyone here use?

When I worked on the tools and was doing decorating work I used Harris brushes

I use an angled Wooster brush from screwfix. 2.5inch I think.

I use a Purdy elite Dale sash brush 1.5 inch, cost a bit more but still going strong after 4 years.

Yeah like that but mine has a longer handle

Great brush though.

Me and my wife swear by these style of brushes very easy to cut in with thanks to the tapering of them

We've done the study during lockdown and I only used Harris "no bristle loss" brushes, seemed fine

Purdy monarch pro extra in 2” or 3” for emulsion clean it out properly and it will last you years, perfect for cutting in

I use Frogtape

My advice is to use a large brush as that way you can cut in using a large sweep which is easier and takes less time.

Same, even with a steady hand I'll mess it up somewhere so always tape it off.

Yeah I have a very steady hand/good dexterity but still can't match the results of using a good decorating tape.
