What is the best type of brush for spreading glue?
Glue is a brush killer, so when using a brush to apply glue, you should always use a brush that you don't care too much about.
Strangely, the fact that brushes are pretty much useless after being used with glue, is a good thing! It gives them one last purpose after they are no longer fit for paint application, and that means you don't have to go to the shops and buy separate brushes for glue! You may even be able to use the brush for many gluing jobs to come, providing you clean it very well after each use.
