But fortunately, there is an easy way to prevent it from happening. Just carry a cloth while painting to wipe off any excess paint from your brush. Not only does this eliminate the headache of dealing with pesky paint drips, but it also goes a long way to ensure a smoother finish.

Any old cloth will do. Remember that when you detect excess paint accumulating on your brush, reach for your cloth. Keep it in your apron/pocket to always have it to hand.
