[QUOTE=gemy;3044858. That reminds how are you guys cleaning your brushes? What solution do you use?

Thanks for your thoughts [/QUOTE]

Of course I remove any hair left in the brush after each use. About once a month, I use a cloth wet with a disinfecting cleaner like Lysol and wipe over the brush, in between the pins, over the cushion. After that, I give them a quick rinse, trying not to soak the cushion with a lot of water. I dry them with a blow dryer and store them with the handles down. W/handles down if there is any water left (in my case there isn't water leftover), gravity will take it away from the cushion and pins.

I've read to soak them in a disinfecting solution to clean. But w/wood handles on most of my brushes and also not wanting to completely soak the cushions, I found it better to wipe them down with the cloth.

Also, for my foster/rescues I use different brushes than I do for the others. Not knowing for certain about skin issues they could have, I prefer they have their own set of brushes. And, I clean them after each bath.
