On another site somewhere, some time ago, I read about using Isopropyl Alcohol to clean brushes.
If you are using acrylics such as Vallejo model color - which tends to dry very hard after a few days, then I am pleased to report that this stuff does an excellent job of restoring life to your favorite brush.
All those little dried up particles of acrylic paint that gather in the head of the brush and cause the tip to spread out .... gone !
Well pretty much gone anyway. After a quick thrashing in the alcohol, the whole brush recovers it's smoothness and fine tip.
So from now on, before any painting session, Im giving all the brushes a quick re-wash in this miracle substance before use.
Give it a go !
