I've also had very positive experiences with the Master Brush Cleaner - it's a bit pricey (at least at my local artist's supply) but really increased the life of my brushes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6397250603826942614.post-53320237254955381092015-03-27T15:03:36.308-07:002015-03-27T15:03:36.308-07:00Hi Lee,

I also reload my brush with the soap after cleaning. I have found it really conditions the bristles and keeps them in top condition.

Let the soap dry that way and store them the way you normally would. When it's time to paint next just rinse them out and go. He mentioned that he's been able to keep them in better shape much longer doing this.Varangianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03333063064442472459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6397250603826942614.post-7192896369358610692015-03-27T10:43:07.285-07:002015-03-27T10:43:07.285-07:00Hi Dean,

I think I will give it a try. <br /><br />I am also a great fan of Rosemary's brushes. Perhaps not quite as perfect as series 7 but not much in it and the price!<br /><br />Johnjohnpreecehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05548014163096067684noreply@blogger.com
