Steel wool is a gentle alternative to abrasive paper or sandpaper when you want to sand painted surfaces, for example. Steel wool does not scratch. Steel wool gives a matt, smooth surface and is also ideal for patinating painted surfaces.

ADVICE AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS:

To remove loose bristles, always soap-wash a new brush before use.

As the brushes contain pure natural bristles, it is essential that the bristles are not exposed to drying solvents, without re-greasing the bristles afterwards.

Before use: Oil the entire brush (with cooking oil, rapeseed oil, or similar) for a few days. Then soap wash out the brush.

After painting with water-based paints and “older” paints, e.g. egg oil tempera, glue paint, wash the brush thoroughly with soap and water.

After painting with oil-based paints, use a non-drying cleaner. Always finish with a soap wash.

It is important to smell the brush, properly washed out it only smells of soap or possibly pig bristles.

For longer painting breaks, lubricate the brush with soap and shape the brush so that it does not “bounce”, store the brush like that. You can also hang the brush in a container with oil and “forget about it”. This will keep the brush in good condition until the next season’s use.

ATTENTION! Linseed oil poses a risk of spontaneous combustion in rags and tangles!
