I prefer to do my initial mixing with a palette knife to keep my sealable palette of fresh paint "clean", and lay out my strings on a separate paper palette or a piece of glass. I'll do my fine-tuning with a brush, but I don't like to just mash a brush in, or work paint deep into the bristles or the ferrule.
It's a lot easier to wipe a palette knife clean with a rag, or on the edge of the palette.
