Troubleshooting
Bristles are splayed or misshapen after cleaning.
Gently reshape the bristles with your fingers while they are still wet after rinsing. Allow them to dry in their natural shape. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
Paint is difficult to remove from bristles.
Rinse brushes immediately after use. For dried paint, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by a thorough rinse. Ensure all soap residue is removed.
Handle feels slippery when wet.
Wipe the handle dry with a cloth. The ergonomic design aims for grip, but excessive moisture on any surface can reduce traction. Adult supervision is recommended.
