How to care for your brush
Synthetic Evergreen brushes are straightforward to care for. Rinse them promptly after painting, use a mild soap if necessary, and reshape the points, flats, and filberts before drying. They can handle slightly warmer water than natural hair, but avoid hot water and do not leave them soaking. The rigger deserves special attention because long fibres are easy to bend if stored carelessly. Keep the set dry and protected in a brush roll or case, and store it so the tips do not get crushed. That will preserve the crisp working edges and clean points the set is designed to provide.
