Bro Tip: Cleaning Your Brushes


Hey guys, super quick tip blog post on using hand sanitizer to clean brushes. I heard about this on the SkullBrosAwesome Podcast (you need to listen if you don’t already) (http://www.skullbrosawesome.com/) and thought I would give it a go! Really simple, leave your brushes coated in the hand sanitizer for 30minutes or so (make sure you rub in thoroughly) then brush your brushes into a plastic tub and watch how the paint pours out! I finished it off by washing my brush in running water. BOOM!!! Brand new looking brushes! The bristles also seemed to soften back to the original softness when I bought them. Seriously awesome tip, try it out!

    That's a fantastic tip! I think combining this with something like brush soap would help maintain and clean up the worst brushes imaginable!

    Amazing tip. I usually clean mine with vinegar and water. I think that hand sanitizer will work perfectly , too. I love your blog. Keep posting!
