cleaning paint brush in fabric softener (Question)
I was at my son's house today and he had just finished a small paint
project. I saw him pour something from a container that looked like a half gal milk box. I asked what it was and he said cheap / generic fabric softener that he soaks his brush in for about an hour and that it makes them easier to was. He was using latex paint. Personally, I never heard of anything like this. He said he got the idea from his bro-in-law. Anyone ever hear of this? PS: I'm sure sounds like a troll, but it's for real. Bob-tx |

cleaning paint brush in fabric softener (Question)
I like to clean them and then cover them in murphys oil. I've been using the
same cut-in brush for years. "Bob" wrote in message ... I was at my son's house today and he had just finished a small paint project.
