Hold Brush Correctly For Painting Success
Painting is easy when you hold the brush by the handle. Do not choke it with thumb and fingertips on the ferrule. Develop a free swinging wrist and arm motion. A brush controls thickness and smoothness of a coating. Observe a skilled painter to learn technique.

Spackling Good For Patching Surfaces
A handy patching material called spackling compound fills cracks in plaster woodwork and wallboards. It is a whiting and glue powder mixed with water to a stiff paste. Use a knife or finger to apply to painted surfaces, let dry sand lightly prime then repaint.
Paint Best for Screens
Paint is better than spar varnish for coating copper and bronze screening so it won't stain the woodwork because spar varnish will last only one season while paint should do for three or four.
