How to make an “eternal” paint brush


How to make a paint brush in five minutes, let's try to figure it out with you.

Now everything is in stores! Buying any brush and quite cheaply is not a problem, but imagine such a situation. You need to color something. Literally two brush strokes. After such short-term use, the brush will have to be thrown out. It's a pity, but nothing can be done; washing it somehow is not handy.

And in this situation, this article will come to your rescue.

how do it yourself, it’s very simple and cheap to make a paint brush that does not need to be thrown out and does not need to be washed, with detailed photographs and will be described in it.

What can I make a brush from?

This does not require much time and materials. It will be enough for an old dried brush or any other pen, which is convenient to hold in your hand during painting and a few more details.

We disassemble the old brush so that the handle remains intact, and discard the rest.

Next, we select an ordinary clerical clip of the width that the width of the brush you need, and adjust the width of the handle to the width of the clip. It is better not to cut the handle with a knife, but to saw it off, it will be more accurate, and there is no risk that the tree will break off where it is not needed.

To fix the clamp to the handle, you need to pick up two small and not thick screws. Depending on the diameter of the screws, you need to take two drills. The larger one is for drilling the clamp, and the smaller one is for drilling the screw holes in the handle (so that it does not crack when the screws are tightened).

We drill holes.

We fasten the clamp to the handle.

Cut the foam of the desired size and insert it into the clip.

The brush is ready.

A brush for painting with your own hands is made, it can be used indefinitely and not worry that the paint will dry out and the brush will have to be thrown away. After painting, you simply throw away the used foam rubber, and simply wipe the handle slightly from traces of paint. You can not even throw away the foam, but leave the brush, as it is.

In order for the brush to be ready for further use, simply change the dried foam rubber to a piece of the new one and the brush is ready for use again.Foam rubber can be taken any, such as you have.

If no foam was found, then you can use a piece of old fabric, folded in several layers, a piece of felt or something like that.

As you can see, there are no hopeless situations.

Good luck to you.

Here you can also see how I do this ...
From scraps of "plastic" (composite) reinforcement ... We use it quite widely - it does not rot in concrete ... And therefore, finding scraps is not a problem. And I have a lot of my leftovers and scraps - I made from it and ..
So there are a lot of scraps of various thickness lying around in the corner ...

Easy to do - burned the end, (burned epoxy) and the brush is ready !!! As already said, if you need a flat one, put on a suitable tube and splash it ...

In more detail, I showed the manufacturing process in

A big plus of such brushes is that it is not only free, but also “eternal”. I’m never washing them - after all, then you can simply burn it with dried lighter - the dried glue (varnish, paint) will burn, they will remain with fiberglass ...
Specially checked. Enamel PF-115 and does not think to dissolve foam rubber. Of course, something significant is more convenient to paint with a brush, but when you need to fix a small piece - it is quite acceptable. Especially if there is a free foam rubber.))

And also completely free .. And even more "eternal" - no need to wash. And done in a minute ...

Valerian, and from what it is made, tell me, and where to get it, if free. (I'm not kidding).

You stump, Ivanovitch! Full!

I would not want to respond to such a remark with rudeness, but I think that it is necessary to answer rude rudeness with rudeness.
You, Mr. "builder", are a complete IDIOT, if your first comment on this site begins with the words "you stump ...".
In our comments only competent people in every way communicate and people like you Fools they don’t tolerate here.
Gentlemen friends, sorry. Just a shame for Ivanovich.
Foam rubber? From shit candy?
And she is not afraid of acetones ... And soft ...
But somehow I don’t care, it’s more convenient with a brush than with a swab ... Especially if I apply glue, for example ... I don’t like to paint with tompons. I’m doing these ...




And why are they worse? As for me - much better ...
And also completely free .. And even more "eternal" - no need to wash. And done in a minute ...
If you need a flat one, I put the tube on and splash it ...

Only the "mighty" stump does not read carefully. There is about fabric and felt.
You stump, Ivanovitch! Full!
Try to paint with foam enamel.
In a couple of minutes you will see what your homemade product has turned into!
