Default Question for Bristol Finish users

Sorry I did not read the question properly.
With two part liquids I always dispence the next part of the larger volume
two part, then after having thouroughly scraped as much out of the used
brush as I can, I work the brush in the new uncatalised liquid so that any
catalised liquid is thouroughly diluted by the uncatalised liquid. The now
diluted liquid in the brush wil not cure. When ready, add the catalist,
remember to stir and away you go. If it's hot and a long break keep in the
frig (if you are allowed)

I hate washing brushes and I'm going to try the six coats in a day method
up at the boat were brush cleaning will be difficult. I also don't trust a
cleaned brush until it is thouroughly dry. Since this is a two part
system, I don't imagine wrapping the brush between coats will work. So, it
sounds like disposable brushes.

How well does BF work with foam brushes? I've had a wide variety of
success with these depending on type of finish material. For some things,
they are the best choice and others impossible.

I'm not after a showpiece finish here. I just want it to pass the
straight face test.
