Tips for Use

Lift Paint and Soften Edges

To use the brush, dampen slightly with clean water, then drag gently but firmly upon its long edge while holding the brush nearly vertically. As soon as paint is removed, dab the brush several times on a paper towel to clean the tip and continue as needed. Rinse after 2-3 erasures, dab to remove wetness, and continue.

Be careful to avoid too damp of a brush, and erasing too vigorously to extend the longevity of this small but mighty brush!
