Bob Ross R6519 Brush Beater Rack

Now I too, can deal the devil while saving my carpet.

I love what Bob Ross stood for, and thought buying Bob Ross products would benefit his children and family. Not the case. If you can believe the Netflix documentary entitled Bob Ross, Happy Accidents, Betrayal and Greed, business partners muscled the rights to his name and all past and future products away from Bob on his death bed, and children since then. A sad story. But there are great alternatives to these good products that I intend to buy in the future. I will not support predatory business successes.

This works as expected... it’s a lot smaller than I thought it would be (which I like)! This would fit into one of those small desk trash cans at the bottom and allow you to use it to clean/beat your brushes. It’s a simple contraption... a little over priced for what it is in my opinion, but it does the job for what it’s meant to do.

Havent used yet but know it will work.

Its wild how much quicker and easier it is to paint with the Bob Ross method (especially if you only have 1 of each brush like I do to start) with the brush beater rack in a small trash can. I did two paintings where I tried just shaking it off in a trash can or beating it on the side of my table, which was a total mess and didnt get all of the paint & thinner out of the brush. Putting this rack in a 7 gallon rectangular trash can (like this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0013CQ5EO) made a world of difference. Keeps the mess contained and allows you to beat the devil out of it much quicker with much less left in the bristles. This and the thinner bucket/screen cut my brush cleaning time in at least half during paintings. Worth every penny if youre doing Bob Ross paintings with any regularity!

Bob was right beating the devil out of the brushes is fun

This helps clean my brushes.

And no, Im not talking about a roof rack on the ancient Toyota that was my first car! This brush beater rack does the job well. If you cant find a trash can thats just the perfect size, some of those clear plastic storage totes are the right size as well. If they are slightly too tight, you can push the rash down into them and have it hold nice and steady. This item does a good job with my brushes and seems to be well made.

A must have with oil painting.
