When using a brush or roller with a water-based paint and you need to finish for the day, wrap your brush or roller in Cling Film or a plastic bag. This keeps the brush or roller supple and soft enough to use the next day.

I wouldn’t recommend leaving a brush or roller stored like this for more than a day this is just an overnight solution, to save on the washing up!

The new blog for propertydecorating.co.uk was launched in July 2008. We have decided to add a blog to our web site to provide visitors with a resource to view the latest news and publish some tips and tricks of the trade, that we hope will be of practical use to our visitors.

The blog also gives a place for visitors to place comments on both the tips and of course the property decorating web site. We also intend to add a testimonial section in the near future, thus providing a place for our customers to comment online about our work.
