Ok, the Paint Buddy Rubber Maid Touch Up Tool may seem a little expensive for paint touch ups, but you get six.  And it is worth it to not have to hope your paint is still usable and to avoid cleaning brushes for small jobs.  We have one at the ready for our living room, dining room, and kitchen – plus the trim colors and ceiling white.  I have found this the most practical for touching up a newly painted ceiling.  Even with the pink-to-white paint I miss something and when painting a wall I never get a truly perfect edge using a roller or brush, even when I tape.  Now, it takes no time at all to fix.

At the end of every painting job, I fill the reservoir with left over paint.  I know that I will see a couple spots that need a bit more coverage; using the Touch Up Tool actually helps me finish a room.  If I noticed touch ups after all the clean up, chances are I would procrastinate.  It is also very handy for the small gaps we have between many of our doors; they aren’t wide enough for a normal brush and they are too narrow for an artist’s brush.  The Touch Up Tool easily and cleanly covers the wall.
