Hi All,
Wow! I'm sooo glad I found this valuable, 3 year old thread. Vicki gives such great advice here for paintbrush care, I am hoping I can bring it back to life by posting.
If I may add one really important note: Never use oil-based products or conditioners in your brushes that you use for water-based paints such as acrylics or watercolours. It is nearly impossible to wash out all oil residue from the brush and this will cause your water-based paints to "fish-eye" upon application. "Fish-eyeing" is when the paint 'separates' on your painting surface creating light and dark spots. Very frustrating !!!

Happy painting, everyone!
Leslie
