Dear firm, which produces only natural cosmetics. It has no harmful particles in its composition, and the liquid to eliminate the residues of the paint is completely harmless. However, it will not work for strong chemistry.

Another means for washing brushes, which is declared as a natural alcohol solvent. The manufacturer indicates the organic composition, however, in fact it copes only with brushes for shadows. There are light, simple particles of dyes, dust, which are easy to rinse and with water. For deeper cleansing, you can apply liquid data.

Rinse the brush in the solvent (for example, White Spirit). Then wash the brush under hot water with liquid soap or dishwashing agent. Put the brushes to dry up the bristle or hang them on the carnation.

At night, the brush can be left in a jar with a solvent or in a jar with paint - so that only a pile was omitted. So that the hairs remain straight, it is better not to put a brush. Thread into the hole on the handle of the brush rope and sweat in such a way that the pile is in the fluid, but on weight.

If you plan to paint the same paint in a few days, wash and dry the brush is not at all necessary. To save it in a soft condition, take a clean cloth and wet in the solvent. After that, lower the brush itself into the solvent and wrap it with a rag with a rag in several layers. Take the polyethylene package, put it on the brush and creek your scotch so that it turns out hermetic packaging. Such a brush to keep your softness for several days.

It is best to do it horizontally, laying them on a paper napkin. Or use special vertical coasters for drying brushes. "
