What is the correct brush for your DIY painting project you have at hand?
If the project your preparing to do is the walls in a typical bedroom this is the brush I would recommend. A 2.5 inch square tip brush.
This brush is big enough to get those spots to small for a roller. But not so large that it creates problems in those tight corners close to your trim work.
It is polyester as you can tell by the light color of the bristles. A nylon bristle brush would have black bristles. A nylon brush of the same size and with the square tip will work just as well. But as a personal preference I find the polyester brush bristles a little softer.
If you are painting the trim then this is the brush I recommend. If you are painting your trim with (latex) paint.
It is the same 2.5 inches wide and also polyester but has a tapered end. It's often referred to as a sash tool.
The tapered end make getting paint the groves and corners of the trim a litter easer.
Please remember don't buy a cheap brush!
The brush pictured below is a cheap brush! Don't paint the walls in your home with a brush like this. You will regret it. This is the brush you could use to paint a fence in the back yard or the tool shed but NOT the walls of your home.
