Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The brushes are ready for immediate use straight from the packaging. Ensure any loose filaments are gently removed before starting your painting task.
Compatibility: These brushes are designed for use with all paint types, including water-based (emulsion, acrylic) and oil-based (gloss, alkyd) paints, as well as varnishes and lacquers.
Care Instructions:
- Water-Based Paints: Immediately after use, wash the brush thoroughly with warm water and soap until all paint residue is removed. Rinse well.
- Oil-Based Paints: Clean the brush using the appropriate mineral spirits or white spirit. Work the solvent through the bristles until all paint is gone. Follow up with warm, soapy water to remove any residual solvent.
- Drying: Gently squeeze out excess water or solvent. Reshape the brush head to its original form. Hang the brush to dry or lay it flat, ensuring the bristles are not crushed or bent.
- Storage: Store the brush in a clean, dry place with the bristles facing upwards or hanging freely to maintain their shape. Avoid storing heavy objects on top of the brushes.
