how about that ...I never even thought to check that and it does pee me off cause I thought the brush was way too short.

I didn't know that. I've always just held onto bottles that nearly empty bottles and combined then with the new one when the level in the fresher one allowed it.

I don't use the built-in brush. I use an old 00 and 000 paint brush to apply my liquid cement. Longer handle, reaches the bottom of the bottle and it's easier to use than trying to hold on the lid of the bottle.

I have seen that done before, how do you stop the brushes drying out?

I don't. They're old and no good for painting anymore. When the glue finally screws them beyond redemption, I chuck'em and get another old one. I have a couple on standby and another on it's last legs.MarkB15 wrote: Tue May 29, 2018 9:54 pmChris,dogsbody wrote: Sun May 27, 2018 11:11 pm I don't use the built-in brush.
