Questions & Answers

What's the best way to clean makeup brushes using this product?

I don't know how to pronounce this one. It would be better to refer to Good Housekeeping's article on how to clean your makeup brushes with household products. Those are some good suggestions, and what you can likely find or get is easy to find. As part of a cosmetic laboratory's research, The Masters"® claim their cleaner was formulated to help maintain and condition brushes with the same care and thought you give to your hair products. Can that be done?

There are 2 cans in each of the two cans. Do both cans of "soap" make 5. Or did each 5 ounce can be combined for a total of Do you think 5 ounces are enough?

Cans vary in size from 2 to 4. The weight of each ounce is approximately five A total of 5 ounces will be delivered to you.

Can you tell me the difference between this and the other brush cleaner and preserver by masters? Neither one is larger than the other. ?

It is only the cleaner that I use. I like how it works! The other needs to be examined as well!

The point here is to get straight to the point
4/5

Paint was removed from the walls. A QUICK REVIEW
The product works as intended. In the past, I had lots of old acrylic paint stuck in my brushes, but this helped get Dawn soap was the only thing I was using. I now realize it There is a pronounced lemon scent to it. If you have baked on paint on your brushes, you will need to clean them a few times. The paint came off, but it didn't get all the paint. It's been a while since I painted. I have no idea how to take care of paint brushes since I just got into it in the fall. I got on a painter's subreddit and everyone told me to try this product, so I did and I'm so happy I did because it got out all the paint and my brushes now look brand My brushes had to be cleaned like 10 times in total because the dark paint was stuck to them and it takes longer to remove than the lighter colors. It smells like they should do this in a way that I do not like. The smell of those cigarettes always makes my eyes water and sting. I suffer from really bad allergies. I guess you could consider it to be a lemon pinesol smell, but it's nowhere It just has a faint lemon pinesol smell to it, but I can smell smells very well. An extremely light/medium scent permeates the air. rated it 4 stars because I don't see the point in it having a scent and it would be nice if they made one without a smell. In my experience, after using paint brushes that were previously cleaned, I have cleaned them as soon as possible after use. This product removes all the paint on 1 washing.

Can you tell me what I'm doing These are good and I purchased 2 of them based on the good I hate it
3/5

There are several reasons why it is difficult to get the soap onto the sides and top of the bristles thanks to the small cup. The suds are hardly there and there is no smell at all. While none of that is really a big deal, I find that I take longer to scrub the dried paint out of my brushes using this soap than I do with Dawn dish soap. You can't beat the price but if it is hard to use, can you beat it? I wish I had not bought two of the cups since there are actually four small cups. In the past, I used BB Frosch soap to clean my brushes, now I know what an awesome brush cleaner it is! This product smells nice, is not overpowering, gives off a lot of suds, and is quick to Hopefully, I will continue to use the cleaner I currently use.

Paint brushes can be saved
5/5

One of my friends forgot to clean an expensive oil brush and this product saved it from being wasted. I was able to use the brush again immediately because it worked exactly as advertised. The single was good so I decided to buy this three pack. I will give this to all my artist friends this Christmas.

Suddenly, your crusty paintbrushes will be a thing of the past! The stuff works really well! Students have "killed" many paintbrushes by leaving acrylics to dry on the bristles of the brushes when I teach art
5/5

Using this compound (follow directions closely) has revived these brush heads that were once dead! As a result, we will be able to save money in the long run, as we will not need to replace even more paint brushes. This is a product I highly recommend.

Brush cleaner that does a great job
5/5

You can use this to clean paint brushes even if they have been allowed to get dusty or dry. Paint stains can also be removed from clothes with the solution, and it is especially effective if the paint is still damp at the moment. This is also a good saddle soap cleaner.

I have about 40 or more paint brushes in my collection and desperately needed to clean them thoroughly and properly
5/5

Based on my research on various cleaning solutions, this one was highly rated and you get more bang for your buck with the 3 pack. I was very impressed with how well it worked. I used it on all the brushes that had acrylic paint stuck to them and it smelled.

Often referred to as brush It's always a good idea to wash off the paint after painting
5/5

My first set of brushes did not have this feature, and I regret failed to do so. I have found these helpful for my current set and will probably find them helpful in the future as well.

I really like this
5/5

The product I use to clean my acrylic paint brushes has been on the market for years. repeated washings, you should be able to remove all of the dried paint from your brush and leave it feeling Also, recently I discovered that it works very well when I forget to wear gloves in order to get dried acrylic paint and pouring medium off my hands. A long time is spent using it.
