Cut in Corners with a Paintbrush... Like a Pro!
Channel: RC Creative

Edging gadgets don't live up to their promises. Learn to cut in corners like a professional painter with an angled brush and the right technique! 

I've tried several types of edgers over the years. An edger is basically a plastic handle with two wheels that holds a rectangular brush. You put the brush against the surface you want to paint, and the wheels, at least in theory, prevent the brush from ever touching the perpendicular surface. More often than not they end up producing wildly imperfect corners and getting marks all over the adjoining surface.

Edgers suck. 

So put on your big kid pants, grit your teeth, and prepare to learn a new skill: cutting-in corners with a paintbrush.
