    Wow, that paper towel trick. So simple and yet I would have never thought of it. Thanks!

    wrapping in paper towel is the best way to keep the brushes in shape. Another method is to keep brushes in shape, soak it with water soluble office grade Camlin gum.

    Thank you. Windsor and Newton are my favourite brushes. I use oil and wash my brushes with a natural soap and water but the tips still fray after a while. I’ll have to try the safflower oil and paper towel trick! Thanks!

    Using a small piece of aluminium baking foil, put 'excess oil paint' from the palette on it and wrap tightly squeezing out as much air as possible - this will preserve it well for at least a day if not longer, (have had three or more days in a workable condition) especially if a tiny drop of Liquin is added. Similarly, instead of cleaning a brush thoroughly during a long "interruption" (a meal) wipe excess paint of (or not) and wrap aluminium foil around it 'sealing' it around the handle. A lot of Turps/Sansador is becoming a litle expensive to be constantly cleaning brushes especially if a number of hues are used.

    Hi Winsor & Newton, can Linseed Oil be used instead of Safflower oil?
    Thank you.

    Is there A specific kind of metal polish to wipe the silver part of the brush with so that it stays shiny, and new? I tried rubbing alcohol, and it doesn't work as well.

  • @akaredcrossbow
    @akaredcrossbow 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I only paint oil once every 3-4 months if I’m lucky! After using the safflower oil, should I still use the soap and water or just leave the safflower oil on the brushes until I’m ready to paint?
    What household dish soap do you recommend for cleaning the safflower oil off, Dawn, Ivory or Palmolive?
    Thank You!

    I just bought terpentine. I didnt use it yet. I have nightmares at night that my appartment is burning because the terpentine did catch fire. I dont know what to do. I bought this thing and its just sitting there. I'm just super scared to use it.

      GiftofChaosStudio soak your brush in Turpenoid Natural (Google it) for a few days. I have found that it dissolves old caked on oil or acrylic and conditions the brush nicely. Makes the brush as close to new as possible. You won’t be disappointed.

    This is confusing. Which techniques are for oils and which are for acrylics? You start out making the distinction but later on you don't mention it. Maybe do two separate videos?

    • @Auchaser643
      @Auchaser643 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Not confusing at all, acrylics were specifically mentioned during the retarder period because they dry fast. Oils take much longer to dry. The techniques are for taking care of brushes regardless of paint not "do this for acrylics and this for oils"

    I use 20 to 30 brushes a day . I havent got time for this mamsy pansy treatment of cleaning brushes. I place them in a jar of pure dish washing detegent for a few minutes. Pull em out and rinse under warm water. After 3 or 4 weeks of use then toss the lot in the bin.

      those could be cheap brushes to throw away, i've had some and they fall apart fast. but, i get top quality brushes only for watercolour. for acrylic i use synthetic, for oil - bristle, neither tends to get as pricey as watercolour ones.
