Brush cleaning

Postby tankman » Sat Feb 26, 2011 12:13 am

Can any one tell me what thinners/solvent will work with Mr Surfacer 500 grade as I would like to keep my applicator brush for more than one tank at a time. Many thanks in advance

Another one that works is cellulose thinner, not nice stuff as it's highly flammable and toxic 8| but it will get Mr Surfacer off your applicator brush.

I use Halfods cellulose thinners - works a treat with mr Surfacer of any grade !!

I bought 100 kids paint brushes for £10 on eBay (about size 5). 10p each. Cheaper than any solvent & more than suitable for Mr Surfacer.
