Definitely, but cleaning must be handled carefully. In case the brush has been used for oil painting, make sure all of the oil paint has been removed from Turpenoid Natural (this is a paint remover, so don't use it to thin paint) is my paint remover of choice, and when I am ready to clean the brush, I The natural type is water soluble), and then wash the brush with soap. Before using oils on the brush, ensure that it is completely dry. It is not necessary to allow it to dry completely if you will be using acrylics after the brush has been completely dried. The brushes I use for oil and acrylic work are usually separated.

There is a very strong disappointment in me. As a result, I was truly shocked by this brush's performance. After the painting was complete (an hour later), I used the brush once very gently as well as cleaned it very gently. It fanned out when it dried. This device can no longer be used for detail work as the point is no longer valid! The expensive detail brush can do this after only one use? How is that possible? You can see the pictures here. A second Da Vinci brush that I purchased at the same time will also be returned. Unlike this brush (1210, size 1), the other is a 2103, size 0 and that one really flared out. Unlike the previous brush, this one didn't have the same problem, but since it lacks a point, it's unusable as a detail brush and lacks all functionality. It is rumored that these brushes will be of excellent quality. They seem to be in trouble, what's happening? What is the reason for fanning out these brushes in this manner? The fakes are either fakes, or something is going on at the company that significantly reduces the quality of the products. If the brushes are to stay pointed, do they need any sort of special cleaning technique? Upon purchase, each brush should contain instructions on how to clean it. My experience with so-called software has never been this frustrating before A quality brush is called a quality brush.
The smaller flat brush I ordered will be used to detail some of my This brush does have a better quality than my higher grade synthetic brushes, but the handle is definitely warped from the wood being incorrectly dried. I do not know if there are kiln dried brushes, but I am sure DaVinci could QA this given how expensive they I recommend that budding painters who are working with oils follow these simple instructions do not use thinner/turps to clean these brushes (or any of your brushes for that matter), just soak your brush in safflower oil and let it sit for several hours. There are too many people out there who use mineral spirits or turps to clean their sable brushes after every session, ruining them. As a result, let me summarize. Unfortunately, I deducted a star for this because the handle is kind of crappy. The bristles are awesome, but the handle is awful.
ii) The ferrule did not have a sleeve. I have been extremely fortunate that the brush's quality is such that the hairs have largely returned to their original shape, but I cannot imagine why it was packed so shoddily given the value of the brush.
The packing methods appear to be random and without rhyme or reason. In contrast, items that are one dollar are treated like gold, while items that are one hundred dollars are sometimes treated like trash.
To make a long story short, I have been very fortunate with only the occasional residual damage, but who needs.
It is a $33 brush, and they slap on it a 1 cent adhesive inventory label that is so sticky it smears all over the stem when trying to take it off Peeling it off isn't an option. Sticking the adhesive to the stem adheres it. A good brush can be made bad by what? I watched the product disintegrate into a pile of crap in an instant.
may seem like a lot of money to spend on a brush, but, it makes a significant difference. The bristles are not shedding and remain in shape. Make sure you buy cheap brushes so that you can find out what size you are most comfortable with, and then buy that preferred size after upgrading. In the long run, it's a good long run investment for great performance as long as you take proper care of it.
(Escoda brush sets In this article you will find descriptions of Reserve, Prado, and Here is what Da Vinci said The Maestro, Marder (oil brush), Harbin, and Nova)
(Mine came with the protective cap, but the Harbin I got around the same time didn't. * )
The Kolinsky Marder seems similar to the Maestro, at least among the brushes I have. It might be There are many brushes from Da Vinci that I like. As well as great prices, Amazon has free shipping. ')
When I wear the brushes out, or "break them in" more, I'll update the review.
There is no difference between the two descriptions.
A horrible thing about bristles is that they are so short.
