How to Care For a Paintbrush.
Never leave it standing long in the paint, nor allow it to dry before being washed. One used frequently may stand in water or oil, but one seldom needed should be thoroughly washed after each ■using. Brushes often washed may be cleansed in soda dissolved in cold water, then placed brush end up to dry. A brush washed but once or twice a year is cleaned best by rubbing it well with soft soap in warm water. A little turpentine will remove all paint. The brush is then rinsed and the bristles straightened and shaken so they will not dry together.
