Paint brushes

[The Barbarian]

jesus what is it these days. I buy the best paint brushed for glossing i can within reason but all you get today is Synthetic Bristle Brushes, i blew my top today using one because quite frankly they are shite imho.. Why the hell do companies mess about all the time.God knows where im gonna get a high quality brush with real bristles from.. My glossing is like gloss without a single brush mark in sight, with these brushes it's totally un satisfactory.The wife keeps thinking im always moaning about things to get out of doing jobs which aint true at all.

:steam:

Natural bristle is fine but these are better. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Purdy-Pro-Extra-Monarch-Elite-Professional/dp/B00BJN0DMM/ref=pd_sim_sbs_diy_5?ie=UTF8&refRID=10XY3HBV1S8Q4YBRBXNZ
When I was painting I always used Purdy

[The Barbarian]

For a DIY approach to brushes, try a big tuft of yer baw-hair, stuck onto a lolly stick, then dip into paint, and apply liberally onto the painting surface… Just watch that any ‘crispy bits’, stuck to the hairs, don’t create an unintentional ‘stippling effect' :eyebrows:

No andre still got it. Sale fortunately fell through . Now using it in main system and it sounds superb. Might just be me that likes this amp around here . Lol. It's only slight drawback is the pots steps are relatively large.

[The Barbarian]

Well alter the pot then..

[struth]

Might be a plan mate.

[The Barbarian]

I would if it's a pain..

You want to see pics of paintwork? :scratch:

[Marco]

Yes, whatever it was you re-painted, was it a piece of furniture or what? Knowing you, it’ll be something different, and so worth looking at :)
