Today\\u2019s Quick Tip is about how to find the right paint tool. Purdy is my favorite type of paint brush, they make quality supplies that can make your paint project look sharp. But figuring out what kind of brush to use is a problem. Well, they came up with the Purdy Tool Selector to help you with this issue.

I\\u2019m here to say that the brush you use makes all the difference, especially when cutting in with two different colors (e.g. purple walls and white ceilings..)

Purdy brushes aren\\u2019t cheap but they last forever. You\\u2019ll love using them, I do.

Taking doors off the hinges can create a snowball effect of problems. Plus, often the door is very heavy. It\\u2019s much easier to leave it and paint the darn thing where it\\u2019s hanging. Sarah shows you exactly how to do this. So check out her tips.
