makoccino hi so helpful
Y out help me so much
Makoccino I am a really big fan of yours.. Love the way you tell...you are my favorite TH-cam,favourite artist and favourite teacher... Thank you for sharing these beautiful ideas❤️
Thanks for the pin it's my first pin ever 😘
❤😍
Me: why are my brushes ruined who did this
Also me: *dips whole brush in water*
@weeby weeb thanks for the tip! im gonna start using more synthetic ones plus i kinda feel bad for using animal hair
Same 😂
And leaves it in there for a week.😑 I’m literally on vacation and have brushes at home in water.
azfadel yeah not fun!🙄😂
GUILTY!
Thankss for da help Mako!Now i can stop murdering my brushes:))
C_Y Studios u r funny
Yeh i murder my brushes too
😂😂😝😝
Was this supposed to be funny? 😂
🤣🤣
My watercolor brushes needed this soo bad😅soo helpfull.. Love you mako😘
I also recommend using brush soap (the master brush soap is amazing) to shape the bristles after use and allow it to dry into the brush helping to A: keep bristle shape B: condition bristles deeply keeping them soft and strong for longer time period and C: when wetting the brush from your rinse jar before starting a painting, it adds a small amount off the soap(which was dried to keep bristle shape and condition) it adds a small amount of that soap into your rinse water which really helps clean for color changes while painting: it’s great!!
How did u know that I needed this video ? 😂😂 im the gueen of destroying brushes , within days of buying them .❤✌
Every body is a king/queen of killing brushes (only if their a artist)
I found this video to be very relatable. My brushes were ruined real bad. Thank you Mako for sharing these hacks and ideas! It was really helpful!
I need this!! I'm increasingly using watercolour in my junk and art journals...just painted a lavender plant and it was super easy!! Your advice is always spot on...and fun to watch. I'm sure others agree, yes?? Joie 💜😁🌿
Thank you for tip about masking fluid, wanted to order it.. When it comes to drying I place tissue under and on brushes when held horizontally , they dry a little bit faster for me, and I store them in diy brush cases when fully dry so I can easily carry them around and bristles are protected if they fall (acrylics, oils, watercolor ones and some misc ones I use for other )
Edit : keep up the good work :)
“Dont leave your brushes in water for too long”
Me: “”instantly reaches out to take my brushes out of the water””
Thank you for these great tips. I’m a self-taught painter and I didn’t even know there was a difference in brushed. I do keep a separate set of watercolor brushes aside from my acrylic set. I love your videos!
First Aid kit tips for sad brushes! Been there, done that! Very useful advice for anyone who doesn't want to cry over some very expensive brushes. Also about the paint chipping of the wooden handle of the brush. You can also slightly go over it with sandpaper, so that the chipped varnish falls off completely and then just paint it with a new varnish - make sure it is the non-sticky kind that dries hard completely. I think the washi tape is also a good idea, so long as the sticky part of it doesn't annoy you while painting! Thanks for all the useful information! 🙏🏻🖌🎨💧
i am a high school freshman and we do a lot of painting and stuff. i actually really didn't know about this, so my paintbrushes had been suffering for so long. thank you for making this video. it is very helpful. love ya!!
Glad this is still up (I'm seeing comments from 4 years ago). I was just about to toss a brush from the travel set I love and decided to watch this. I've been painting awhile but never saw the hot water hack for brushes. It worked and as soon as the brush dries it looks like it will be fine to go right back in the travel set of brushes with a lovely new point. Thanks makoccino!!
i tried the hot water trick, it worked. A brush that was damaged beyond repair is essentially as good as new! THANK YOU!👏👏👏👏🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
A few years back I bought cheap watercolor brushes that I've not stored in a good way and also mixed painting with them with ink and watercolor. In other words, they aren't in great shape but still they serve me. I clicked on this video to learn more about to to care for them and for the new brushed I'll eventually purchase. I tried the hot water tip as a last resort for the brushes I have right now and it seem to help! Thank you!
thank you so much
This literally saves so much effort
Awesome video, very helpful. I didn't think about not fully submerging the brush for rinsing, lol. What I've found really works for stiff brushes is mixing hand sanitizer and a splash of rubbing alcohol together, and swishing the brush in that for a few minutes. It cleans the gunk out from deep in the bristles, making them malleable again! Works great for acrylics.
Mako, your tips are always so helpful!
I’ve recently started painting with watercolors and your videos have been sooo helpful, thank you so much
Just bought my first expensive brush. Thank you for the tips! 😍
Omg thank you mako.. I used to do a really bad mistake of using watercolor brushes for acrylic paintings but thanks to you my mistake is realized😻😻😻
Thank you for the tip about masking fluid and silicon brushes! I have one regular brush ruined by masking fluid and I couldn't save it. It made me about forget about this fluid for a while but now I can use it again with no fear :)
You just saved my favourite brush. Thank you
Thank you for these tips ! I had no idea how to take care of my brushes correctly.
I exactly do the same thing(destroying brushes)..... Thanks for the vedio mako..😘
Love you sooo much Mako!!! You really help me in art❤❤❤
Thank you❤❤ This is really helpful for a beginner like me😄
Love, love love your videos! Thank you so much for making them! Your sweet smile, practical tips and easy-to-understand instructions are very motivating & make me want to dive right in! Plus, the soft background music is not a distraction, as it is in some videos. You’re awesome, keep up the good work!
Thank you Mako for this video .. As I have been using acrylic paints now a days so often 😊😊🤗🤗💖💖👍👍
thank you for this video,mako! i really struggled with my watercolor brushes because i was using them wrong. this video really helped me! thanks mako! :D
Thank you for also adding tips for brushes used for acrylics
We used soap on bristles prior to masking in art class in high school. Great hack! It works wonderfully.
I love grace art practice watercolor brushes and they are amazing. They were my first purchase and I’ve been using them for the past 3 years. I did not lose even a single hair from the brushes. They’re so underrated and I think you should try them out as well.
Old Masters soap is fantastic, ive used it for years on watercolour and acylic brushes 👍😊
Thanks Mako!!!!
Your videos are very helpful!!!!
Now I know what to do to my brushes...

I'm early! I'm watching four minutes ago! This is helpful for my watercolour brushes! Thank You, Mako
Thank you so much 😣 you really make us happy❤️
Very informative, thank you! My pet bugaboo is that one little hair that sticks way out from the rest. Often it's a loose one, but boy can it mess up a project when it decides to ease on out. I think the most popular no-no is the old "Leave the brush in a glass of water" routine. We had an art teacher that would go ballistic if she came in and saw a brush submerged in water. Then too, this woman would dip her brush in the coffee she was drinking. We never mentioned it to her, but she did it all the time!
Thank you makoccino for the tips😁
Yo. The the bulldog clip just revolutionized my life. And my brushes.
This is so good to know!!! Thank you!

You are so articulate and talented at explaining concepts clearly. Bravissima! One tiny tip: the "t" in bristles is silent. It's pronounced "bris-sels".
