    WAIT, WHAT?! Can i really get my paintbrush in shape again by using starch and water? How... How is that I'm finding this now, after year and year of spending money in new brushes.

      it looks like the solution was heated or even boiled, it looked a lot like thick "kisel" (a Russian dessert made by combining water, starch, sugar, and berries (or fruits) or jam, boiling it and letting it cool, the more starch, the thicker it is, stuff that is sold in the shops is waaay too thin imo)

      @shanniemedrano6344 6 лет назад +21

      for a very mishapen brush..such as one that has been upside down in a container for a long time, you can also wet it and wrap the hairs around and around with some thread. it will dry like that, bend it into the shape you want while its wet. good luck!

    • @-sam-4807
      @-sam-4807 6 лет назад +15

      You can also rub your brushes on a bar of soap, shape it with your fingers, let it dry, and then carefully wash it to reshape the hairs

    Yes, for those who didn't know you can get a brush back together by using starch and water. If you do nails (like myself) you'll notice there is this a White substance on a New Acrylic brush before you do it. And to remove this I dip my brush into the Monomer.
