There’s also a lot of discussion as to which ones should be used and shouldn’t for different applications.I’ve been trying a whole bunch of them out and I’ll be sharing some of the best ones I’ve used over the next little while..

The idea of using salt appealed to me because it’s so darn simple and so darn cheap too.And it really works!Check out my front pathway.. Before:.

I’m thoroughly embarrassed.We’re in the process of removing all that pink rock from all the garden, so it’s pretty much everywhere right now.

I hope that doesn’t mean that Chris was hitting balls at the house..I should note that I’ve been mostly using this medium quality angled brush for this and it’s kept my brush in tip-top shape.
I did try it with a really cheap utility type of paintbrush and it didn’t work so well for that.The metal on those ones seems to rust with this kind of exposure, so keep that in mind if you have a really special 50 cent paintbrush that you want to keep..
