PaintBrushBuddy

A Smarter Way to Handle a Paint Can

PaintBrushBuddy is an ergonomic handle for one-gallon paint cans.
It replaces the wire handle and gives you a safe, convenient place to hang your brush inside the can.

It doesn’t change how you paint.
It just makes the job easier.

Why We Use It

Holding a can by the wire handle strains your hand.
There’s never a good place to put your brush.
Drips and small delays add up.

PaintBrushBuddy removes those annoyances without adding steps or getting in the way.

Once you use it regularly, going back feels unnecessary.

What It Does (Quickly)

• Comfortable ergonomic grip

• Brush hangs safely inside the can

• Fewer drips and less mess

• Easier pauses and task switching

No learning curve.
No gimmicks.

Saves Time & Money (Honestly)

Time

• No wrapping brushes

• Faster transitions

• Less cleanup

Money

• Brushes last longer

• Less wasted paint

• Less fatigue slowing the day down

If it saves time or money on a job, it earns its place.

Ladder Work — The Real Benefit

• Hangs level from the built-in D-ring

• Hang your brush when you need both hands

• Climb up or down with no drips or juggling

Not flashy.
Just more controlled and convenient.

Built to Be Used

• High-quality materials — made for job sites

• Daily-use design — grab it and go

• Job-tested — refined over 3.5+ years

This is a tool, not a gadget.

What It Doesn’t Do (And That’s Fine)

• It doesn’t paint for you

• It doesn’t replace skill

• It doesn’t solve every problem

It solves one thing well:
handling a one-gallon paint can better than the wire handle ever did.

Who It’s For

Great fit if you:

• Paint regularly

• Use one-gallon cans

• Care about comfort and efficiency

If you rarely paint, you may not need it — and that’s okay.

Created by a Pro

PaintBrushBuddy was created by Scott Johnstone, a professional painter who needed a better way to work — and built it for himself first.

Now it’s part of the crew’s daily setup.
No one wants to go back.

Final Word

PaintBrushBuddy won’t change how you paint.
It just makes the day easier.

If you paint regularly, this makes sense.
