It's a magic box that keeps brushes from drying out, so you don't have to keep cleaning them. How's that for arcane DIY knowledge?<BR/><BR/>Also you can save a lot of time with stripy paint.Garyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17776655477199062746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10831518.post-34939778475900693722008-06-06T07:32:00.000+01:002008-06-06T07:32:00.000+01:00Ho Yuss.
