High-quality paint brushes are designed to be used for several jobs, over and over. And while they may treat your projects right, if you don’t care for them back by properly cleaning them after each use, the bristles on paint brushes will end up misshapen and harbor flecks of paint that will cause a bumpy finish on your next project.
Rather than waste your money and time getting new materials, spend a few extra minutes cleaning your paint brushes once you're done. Here’s how to clean your wet brushes properly, broken down by paint type, and how to clean brushes where the paint has already dried.
