16 oz Brush Cleaner & Restorer
A 16-ounce bottle of U.S. Art Supply Brush Cleaner and Restorer designed for artists who need to rescue brushes, airbrushes and other tools clogged with dried acrylic, oil, gouache, ink or water-based paint. It replaces the habit of discarding ruined brushes with a soak-and-wipe routine that returns bristles to working condition.
Removes dried acrylic, oil and water-based paint
The single specification that decides suitability is the cleaner’s ability to soften and dissolve fully dried acrylic, oil, gouache, inks and water-based colours on both brushes and airbrush parts. If the residue is a different chemistry — such as enamel, lacquer or two-part epoxy — this formula will not work.
Soak, wipe, rinse — allow up to 24 hours for heavy
Soak brushes for minutes to hours; heavily loaded acrylic or oil brushes may need up to 24 hours. After soaking, wipe softened residue with a cloth, knife or toothbrush, then wash with mild soap, water and reshape bristles. For airbrushes, flush the cup between colours and soak only the affected parts overnight — never immerse the entire airbrush.

Questions about this item
How long does the 16 oz bottle last when soaking brushes with dried acrylic paint?
A 16-ounce bottle provides enough solution for multiple soak sessions; for heavily dried acrylic or oil paint, soak brushes up to 24 hours, then rinse with mild soap and water.
Can this cleaner be used in an airbrush without damaging internal seals?
Yes, fill the airbrush cup and spray between colour changes or after each use; for dried paint, soak only the affected parts overnight, never the entire airbrush.
What size container does the 16 oz cleaner come in for shelf storage?
The product is supplied in a 16-ounce bottle that fits standard workshop shelves and can be resealed between uses to keep the solution fresh.
