Hi Gaynor!
Please see the main thread here: https://care.king.com/en/candy-crush-saga/help-254714804
The level is really tricky but if you follow the advice from 'Tom Tom' as well as 'Marnie England' then I believe you'll be able to pass. None of them are mentioning a paintbrush feature. Could you possibly post the link to the YouTube clip here?
I found this video that might help you out on best strategy for the level:
