I've got all the indoor doors to gloss paint and the brush I've started
wit is beyond cr@p. It holds very little paint and is developing severe
alopecia. Progress is slow and messy.

Can anyone recommend a decent brand or source of a brush that will help
me do a better and faster job?

Thanks. Any particular version: there's quite a choice.



Use a roller to apply the pain, then just brush it out with the brush.


A pity you didn't tell me that a few decades ago!

I got a 4" 'No-nonsense' mini roller and tray along with a pack of spare
foam sleeves from Screwfix. I'm not cleaning the used sleeve: it's gone
in the bin. At 50p each I can't be bothered.

Much easier and much faster. Even if applying gloss paint with a foam
roller is counter-intuitive.

Thanks for the life-changing suggestion: appreciated!
