Fortunately i purchased both the cortez and the vegas brush per your recommendation. I couldn't be happier! They are both excellent brushes.

The Cortez is awesome. I have a three inch but I’ll need to try the two and a half inch. I’m a DIYer and I just happened to buy the Cortez about 4 years ago at my local Benjamin Moore retailer when I was picking up some Regal Select. I still use the same brush. I bought Corona’s Delta brush recently and didn’t like it at all. I went back to the Cortez after cutting in one wall with the Delta.

I’ve never tried the delta. Over the last year I tried a whole lot of different brushes in different widths. For the majority of the work I do I still prefer a 2 1/2 inch Cortez 🤙

2-1/2" angled Purdy is my favorite, but I'll have to try these next time I need a new one... which is rare since a good brush will last. I also have a 1" angled for trim work.

Ive used both the Monterey and Cortez. I prefer Monterey as it holds more paint. But it doesn't come in a 4", so I want to try the Opal but they're not easy to find.

Curious to hear the difference between this and the Vegas. I just bought a 2" and a 2.5" Vegas based off your recommendations for trim

The Vegas video is coming out this week. The Cortez is the best all around brush. We use them for ceilings, walls and exterior work. The Vegas is more of a specialty brush that is excellent for trim work and doors. Especially when using hybrids like Emerald Urethane and Advance.

What are your thoughts regarding the 3" cortez sash? Thank you
@SuperVassarBrothers

They’re great if you like that size. I find them to be a bit large for what I need to do and if you’re not use to using a brush that big then it can fatigue your hands. It holds more paint than a 2 1/2 inch so it’s noticeably heavier when you work with it. For me (and it’s totally a personal preference) a 2 1/2 inch Cortez is my sweet spot. I’m quite fast with it and I’m use to it in terms of holding one all day without my hands fatiguing

The Cortez is the best all round brush. We use it for walls and ceiling and all of our exterior work. The next video is going to be about a brush that’s the best specifically for trim and doors. (Corona Vegas)

I find the stock to be far too thin-the brush needs to fan out more IMO.

To each his own I suppose. You could always try the Monterey which is the squared off variety and it has a higher bristle count.
