The Dried Acrylic Brushes, 24 Hours Later
Hi! In one section of the class I showed how to get dried acrylic out of brushes, but because it would take a day or two to let the soap do its job, I was only able to show how to soak them in little plastic bags... Well! Today I went to check on them and they had both softened up beautifully, so with a little gentle cleaning care - using the techniques I show in the class - both brushes are back to their original state! (The round brush was always a little grubby looking because it's one of my old ones.)
Here are the photos:
You can really see how both of the brush soaps I used softened the dried acrylic to the point where just a little gentle rinsing and lathering made it easy to bring them back to life.
A great success! I have yet to meet a brush I can't revive, and it's all down to the techniques in this class and no harsh chemicals. :)
