Make your brushes last longer by proper cleaning and conditioning. Just like your own hair, brushes benefit from moisturizing treatments. Our famous conditioning brush soap based with vegetable oils keeps natural hair and synthetic veers smooth and elastic.

How to Clean & Take Care of Your Brushes
The most important thing is to obey the following fundamental rules:

1. Water-soluble colors should be washed out with water.

2. Acrylic color, as long as it is wet, should be washed out with water; when dried up it can only be dissolved with special cleaning agents.

3. Oil colors should be wiped off thoroughly with a piece of cloth. Afterwards the hair or bristles should be cleaned with a special soap that cleans and maintains the brush head on the basis of vegetable oils through its reconditioning action (our Order No. 4033 and 4433) and warm water until the soap begins to produce white lather. Do not use strongly fat removing soaps or detergents! Especially natural hair tends to break if they are missing their protecting fat contents.

4. To wash out the brush rub the hair body of the brush carefully and remove the remains of pigment that chiefly stick to the edge of the ferrule.

5. Afterwards wipe the brush with a fine piece of cloth and bring it to its original shape. Artists call this procedure "dressing".

6. Let the brush dry completely before you use it again. Don't put it on the radiator to dry. There the hair will dry too quickly, the handle will shrink, and the brush head will come loose.
