Care Tips for Longevity

  • Rinse thoroughly with warm water after use.
  • Use brush cleaner or mild soap especially after oil painting.
  • Don’t let paint dry in the ferrule, that’s a common cause of damage.
  • Reshape the bristles while damp before storing.
  • Store handles upright or flat to keep tips precise.
  • These brushes are forgiving and durable, but good care will keep them performing well for years.
