- 13526476on Jun 20, 2017I wrap the brush or the roller in plastic, followed by foil and a large food storage bag, then place in the freezer. I pull the roller or the brush from the freezer and remove the food storage bad and foil before I set up everything to start painting. Once I'm ready to paint, I pull the plastic and off I go.HelpfulReply
