Frequently asked questions
How do you clean the Georgian Kolinsky brush properly? After use, wipe away any remaining paint with a cloth, wash the brush in solvent (white spirit), then finish cleaning it with soapy water.
How do you maintain the shape and flexibility of sable hair? After washing, gently shape the bristles into a point. Dry the brush flat or with the bristles pointing down, and occasionally treat it with mild brush soap.
