Paint Like A Pro With The Perfect Edger
When home improvement celebrity Bob Vila selected the Perfect Paint Edger as the best edger on the market, Dan Kay knew he had invented a good tool. For more than 20 years, the professional Michigan painter has been “cutting in” paint where walls, ceilings and corners meet.
    It’s usually the part of painting that challenges DIY painters. Using tape helps, but often has mixed results. With that in mind, Kay focused on creating an edger anyone can use.
    “It has an ambidextrous guard, so it works if you are righthanded or lefthanded,” Kay says, adding it is also helpful for going around trim and cabinets. The stainless-steel guard moves to both sides and is spring-loaded so it can be pulled out of the way when putting paint on the pad.
    “I always tell people that every pass you make with the edger, check the face and wipe off any paint first,” he emphasizes.
    The edger has boar hair bristles inside aluminum channels on the ABS plastic that touches the wall to paint precisely on the edge. Kay also uses dense 2 1/2-in. square pads that can be removed to clean for reuse.
    The Perfect Paint Edger sells for $22 plus $7.50 S&H and can be purchased directly from Kay or on Amazon.
