Wow, that paper towel trick. So simple and yet I would have never thought of it. Thanks!
wrapping in paper towel is the best way to keep the brushes in shape. Another method is to keep brushes in shape, soak it with water soluble office grade Camlin gum.
OH MY GOD.. The last trick in this video is awesome !! i need to try this now !!
Thank you. Windsor and Newton are my favourite brushes. I use oil and wash my brushes with a natural soap and water but the tips still fray after a while. I’ll have to try the safflower oil and paper towel trick! Thanks!
Thank you 🙏🏽 That was very helpful for a newbie like me! 👍🏽
Using a small piece of aluminium baking foil, put 'excess oil paint' from the palette on it and wrap tightly squeezing out as much air as possible - this will preserve it well for at least a day if not longer, (have had three or more days in a workable condition) especially if a tiny drop of Liquin is added. Similarly, instead of cleaning a brush thoroughly during a long "interruption" (a meal) wipe excess paint of (or not) and wrap aluminium foil around it 'sealing' it around the handle. A lot of Turps/Sansador is becoming a litle expensive to be constantly cleaning brushes especially if a number of hues are used.
Wow! Thx! I'm going to try to clean my paintbrushes with this method...
This is amazing and is why I love winsor and newton products and only use them!
Great tip! Thanks :)
Thank you for the valuable tip!!!
I only paint oil once every 3-4 months if I’m lucky! After using the safflower oil, should I still use the soap and water or just leave the safflower oil on the brushes until I’m ready to paint?
What household dish soap do you recommend for cleaning the safflower oil off, Dawn, Ivory or Palmolive?
Thank You!
Dont worry about it mate.
Hi Winsor & Newton, can Linseed Oil be used instead of Safflower oil?
Thank you.
Is there A specific kind of metal polish to wipe the silver part of the brush with so that it stays shiny, and new? I tried rubbing alcohol, and it doesn't work as well.
I seek for a long long time, a type especifically brush in a natural hair . Long , to blend flesh tones in my portraits. I liked to ask : that can be made, there your industry, in England and export ?
I just bought terpentine. I didnt use it yet. I have nightmares at night that my appartment is burning because the terpentine did catch fire. I dont know what to do. I bought this thing and its just sitting there. I'm just super scared to use it.
Can you do the same with Watercolor brushes? Like wrapping iT in paper after cleaning. What is suggested at the end of the video??
I was curious about the very same thing. I REALLY HOPE Winsor & Newton is paying attention here and leaves an answer!
Just rinse your watercolor brushes out with warm water.
My series 7 tip is forking out, why? I clean it, use brush soap. Can I fix this?
GiftofChaosStudio soak your brush in Turpenoid Natural (Google it) for a few days. I have found that it dissolves old caked on oil or acrylic and conditions the brush nicely. Makes the brush as close to new as possible. You won’t be disappointed.

Can canola or corn oil be used instead of sunflower?
Try it.
But would you use safflower oil on acrylic brushes?
No it is more towards oil painters
I am a new learner!!!! I am using my oil painting brushes after a year and found they are too much stiff and was not cleaned properly. What should i do ??
Brinda Patel I used Murphy’s oil soap that was recommended to me and it did a great job! I use it now to clean jars and other things with hardened oil paint!
What should I do with the Safflower Oil once dirty? - Do I dispose of it & if so how?
No. You keep it forever in your dirty sunflower oil to be kept forever bin. 🙄
T L do I sense sarcasm?
@@shaynashoe Not at all, I like people of all colours and races.
It's a food waste... dispose of it in the bin. Heavy metals are in some paints. Choose your paints wisely
pafait merci
I can understand using natural hair brushes for watercolour... but wouldn't they be too weak for oils and acrylics?
This is confusing. Which techniques are for oils and which are for acrylics? You start out making the distinction but later on you don't mention it. Maybe do two separate videos?
Not confusing at all, acrylics were specifically mentioned during the retarder period because they dry fast. Oils take much longer to dry. The techniques are for taking care of brushes regardless of paint not "do this for acrylics and this for oils"
@@Auchaser643 Oh, I see. Thanks.

I wrap mine in tin foil
Listen, man, some things are not so obvious
Can you give me some paint ...🗿🗿
I use 20 to 30 brushes a day . I havent got time for this mamsy pansy treatment of cleaning brushes. I place them in a jar of pure dish washing detegent for a few minutes. Pull em out and rinse under warm water. After 3 or 4 weeks of use then toss the lot in the bin.
So you throw them away? Maybe is because you are very busy.
Laura G, apparently not too busy to watch youtube and comment :D
those could be cheap brushes to throw away, i've had some and they fall apart fast. but, i get top quality brushes only for watercolour. for acrylic i use synthetic, for oil - bristle, neither tends to get as pricey as watercolour ones.
@@laurag8561 , to busy painting. A brush is good for two weeks then discard it. Replace with a new brush.
@@apelsinuke , Expensive brushes are just as temperamental as cheap brushes . Use for two weeks then replace with new .
@@littleheath1666 Apparently you just have more money than all of us in the world do.
