Hello out there!

Has anybody ever tried WALL DOG Brush Preserving Oil? What did you think of it?

Thanks for your input!

I haven't tried the wall dog. I wash my brushes in mineral spirits and then store them in a bath of half mineral oil and half oneshot brush conditioner. They soak in about a quarter of an inch in the bottom of a small cake pan.

Sorry Jon havn't used the walldog oil. I use the Sapphire brush oil(acid free) does a real nice job of keeping the brushes fresh.

Hey Rob, you better read the label on the "One Shot" brush conditioner.It's really only a cleaner& not a conditioner. Storing your brushes in it will damage the hairs. Send me your "snail-mail" address & we'll send you a sample of "Xcaliber's" Brush Preservative. I'm sure be suprised how good it really is.

My"walldog" brushes...Fitches & Cutters are SUSPENDED in Kerosene so the hairs not touch the bottom of the can!
Quills,Flats & Outliners in Marvel Mystery Oil
