    Detailing Brush Storage Ideas?

    Hoping I can get some ideas here on brush storage.

    I am an enthusiast that has accumulated lots of brushes over the past 8 years. I'm in the process of reorganizing the detailing area of my garage and trying to determine the best way to store these. Right now I have nails in the wall to hang them so that they dry out. I thought about putting them in plastic bins but an concerned the bristles would get flattened, especially my daytona brushes. My goal is to have them organized and neat looking when not in use.

    Any ideas, especially with pics, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any advice.

    I got this Viper board. Not cheap but well worth it and a quality piece.

    You could get a cart and hang them on the side....




    Or use a pegboard....

    Very nice Jeremy.

    Regarding the Daytona brushes flattening out. Warm water will straighten the bristles.

    Zach, that cart is nice. Great idea, I remember seeing it before in another post.

    Jeremy - That Viper board looks interesting. I'll have to look into it. Your garage is looking great!

    Zach - the pegboard idea might make sense. Out of room for a cart to stay in the garage. Also, never thought of using pegboard for the spray bottles.

    Do either of you ever have issues with the board hooks coming off the board when removing the brushes?

    thanks for the ideas!

    I use a bucket with one of those bucket tool holders. Here is an old picture. The bucket is dedicated to brushes only now.

    No issues with brushes falling off or hooks coming out. They snap into place and are very secure. They make the Viper board in different sizes. I like it because it cleans up nice. I also have paint sealant on it. Bristles are always hanging in their natural position. The more I can get off of the floor the better is the way I look at it. Keep things a little neater and organized.

    I hang all of my brushes and I'm like you, Wknd Dtlr, and it seems like i have thousands! ( well...a LOT).

    I don't want them resting on any other surface to bend the bristles and it allows uniform drying.

    Kirk - never thought of that. good idea. Easy to keep your brushes with you too. Do the long handled ones fit in there as well?
