Brush the Tint adjustment on an image
You use the Tint Quick Brush adjustment to shift the tint in a specific area of an image. For
example, if an object in your image has a cyan tint that you want to neutralize, you can add
magenta to just that object without changing the overall tint of the image.

Note: You can also apply a Tint adjustment by brushing the Enhance adjustment on an image.
However, brushing the Enhance adjustment on an image applies the Contrast, Definition,
Saturation, Vibrancy, and Tint parameter settings. You use the Quick Brush equivalents when you
need to apply each of these adjustments in different ways to different parts of the photo. For
more information about the Enhance adjustment, see
Adjust contrast, clarity, and saturation on
page 273.
