Incidentally, if you don't have one already, get yourself a
"Brushmate" (and a clip to hold it upright in the van). I've just
bought a couple more as Xmas grifts. Looks gimmicky, but it does
really work. Crown decorator centres sell them.

I just buy the cheapo brushes & rollers from B&Q & bin them when done. More
economical that wasting time cleaning them.

But a well used brush that has been well cared for is *much* nicer to
paint with. At the very least it doesn't shed hairs at regular
intervals.
