How to use a paint brush

Using your paint brush
  1. Transfer some paint from the can into a small bucket (to help you move around the room easier).

  2. Double-check the types of paintbrush. Use synthetic bristle brush for water based and hog or ox bristle for alkyd based.

  3. Don’t overload your paintbrush. Dip the bristles only about half into the paint and tap on the side of the paintbrush.

  4. Begin with horizontal strokes in back and forth manner and from dry areas back to wet areas to avoid lap marks.

  5. Smoothen the paint evenly by using vertical strokes. Feather the edges by brushing lightly with the tip of your brush.

  6. To draw a straight line along the edges where a wall meets the ceiling or other surface (where you do not want it to be painted), hold the brush at a slight angle and stroke slowly to move the brush slightly away from your edges as you go.
