Hi, I was doing some painting with Hammerite paint and after I was finished, I realized that the brush was going to be hard in half an hour if I did not clean it, So I looked for something that would clean the brush, Lo and behold I did not have the right thinners to do the job, So what did I do ?
Well in the shed I had some terpentine substitute and in my Kitchen cupboard I had a tin of WD40
,, I first sprayed the brush bristles with the WD40 and left it to soak in for 30 seconds, I then washed the brush in the turps substitute and to my amazement all the paint was removed.
I saved myself a tidy sum on thinners as the one for Hammerite paint is rather expensive !
