Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare the brush for its first use, gently flex the bristles to remove any loose hair from the manufacturing process. This brush is compatible with most standard interior and exterior paints. After each use, it is critical to clean the brush immediately to prevent paint from drying at the base of the bristles. Rinse with warm, soapy water for water-based paints, or the appropriate solvent for oil-based paints. Once clean, reshape the bristles with your fingers and hang the brush by its handle to dry, ensuring it is never stored resting on its bristles as this will cause them to bend and lose their performance edge.
