Use a Few Rubber Bands to Remove Excess Paint

When tackling a painting project, ensure you have a few thick, lengthy rubber bands available. These bands assist in removing extra paint from your brush, enabling it to drop straight into the paint can. Take your rubber band and begin to stretch it around the paint can, starting from the top and wrapping it carefully around the bottom. Ensure you perform this step cautiously to prevent the paint can from tipping over. Next, take the brush with excess paint and wipe it against the rubber band.
