Troubleshooting

Bristles feel stiff or dry after use.

Ensure all paint residue has been removed with appropriate cleaner and water. Stiff bristles can indicate dried paint.

Bristles are splayed or losing their shape.

Gently reshape the bristles while damp and allow to air dry completely. Avoid aggressive cleaning or improper storage.

Paint is not applying smoothly.

Check if the brush is adequately loaded with paint. For water-based paints, ensure the brush is not overly saturated with water, which can dilute the paint.

Delivery delay for specific UK postcodes.

If you are in a Non Mainland UK postcode, be aware that additional delivery charges may apply, potentially affecting dispatch or delivery times.

Care Instructions: To ensure the longevity and performance of your pure bristle brushes:

  2. Drying: Gently wipe excess water from the bristles with a soft cloth or paper towel. Reshape the bristles to their original form while damp.
  3. Storage: Store brushes bristles-up in a container or laid flat to prevent bending. Avoid storing them with the bristles pressed against a surface. Ensure they are completely dry before storing for extended periods.
