Cleaning your tools

To keep the brushes in good condition, it's a good idea to rinse them out after use in fresh water. They are best stored somewhere they can dry, like in the bottom of an empty bucket, ready for next time. The Flat Head sock can be removed from the handle and washed separately if it has picked up heavy grime or grease. 

If the bristles on any of the brushes get squashed or deformed, run them under some hot water and pull the bristles straight again.
