I saw this tip on Cool Tools:
In coats or paint, instead of washing your brushes, bag them and put them in the freezer.
Has anyone ever tried this? We’ve used plastic bags for brushes over short periods of time, but this fellow says that you can freeze a brush for months and it will remain soft.
Anything that makes painting less of a pain is a good tip in my book. I hate painting.
Posted by James at January 2, 2007 9:13 AMHey that sounds like a pretty good tip. Wish I had it last week when I did a ton of painting.
I actually like painting. I hate the prep and cleanup. The painting itself I find very relaxing.
