Did use a brush but I'm oddly finding this method works best for me (in stopping any accidental pollination). Thought I'd post this random info -
Take one Staedtler HB pencil (red tip). ok, another pencil manufacturer if you must
Touch the red tipped end of the pencil on the pistils of a flower site (so a little resin is imparted onto the pencil end).
Transfer a small bit of pollen (from a piece of paper) onto the pencil end. The resin will help hold the pollen in place (stopping any accidental pollination, by pollen dislodging while working on bud sites).
Touch/lightly rub the flower site pistils you wish to pollenate with the pencil end.
Done.
