What size brush are you using keane?

Often peeps think a small 1" brush will be more accurate but it won't hold enough paint to give a smooth steady flow and you end up with a jagged line

Would suggest between 2-3" brush.

I've recently brought some new brushes and given Harris Synthetic (blue handles, BQ) a try with the slant cut bristles. Really like them for cutting in

If you need to redo the wall/ceiling junction, then touch in ceiling first and slightly overlap onto wall - dont worry about trying to cut in both ceiling and wall

Purdeys are highly recommended for sure but spending £20 on a brush won't instantly turn you into a pro !

Get up as high as you can to ceiling and get into a comfortable position, facing the wall your cutting in, i.e.

Not working sideways to the wall

Load up the brush and wipe off excesss, start cutting in a few mm lower than the line to get a 'feel' then work up to the correct line. Try and cut in with a smooth steady flow and you should be able to achiev
