weird tricks and tools dept. " The Booger Brush"

Post by Roderick Treece »

The first time i ever heard of a "Booger Brush was from Big daddy Ed Roth.
While painting a sign and eating a sandwich at some point he picked his nose and then it happened.He driped some paint on the background and used his Booger Brush ( Finger) to wipe it off.
The great thing is I already had a set of ten "Booger Brushes" and it didn't take long to put them to use although it has taken a life time to master them.

well now, got sidetracked, emailing Roderick, San Diego, and all....
Probably all know this trick, it's nose related....nose grease, ya, when ya make a boo boo while lettering, firstly, wipe it away with rag, then RUB that rag upside your nose, pick up a bit o Grease, and you gots the cleaner, wipe the spot, then, to sterilize it all, ready to touch up, a bit o spit on the rag...different spot, ya, and you've wiped it clean. Kind of like a delete button, but your nose is ALWAYS on, I hope!
