belenParticipant
thank you !!!
belenParticipantTo extend the life of the brushes, wash them with natural olive soap or glycerin soap, which do not contain chemical detergents.
Brushes become brittle when losing their natural fat, so it is recommended to use gum arabic or other similar substance, to maintain shape, flexibility and durability. I’ve heard of people who wet them in milk because casein can help.
If the brush is really damaged it is recommended to apply a “Brush Recover”, and wrap the body of the brush on silk paper for a week, in a warm place (but not very hot, never near a heater or stove).
The main western brush factories (I think also in the eastern ones), market the Restorers for daily use, and the Recuperators for extreme cases.belenParticipantI have doubts about the texture of the brush “huan hao badger”… can it be equivalent to the “petit gris” brushes?
belenParticipantI was delighted to discover that quality does not diminish! Of course, in that case, it opens a lot of possibilities … very inspiring, thanks!

belenParticipantanyway … now I think that would take spontaneity away from the final work …
belenParticipantyou mean to put the stamp in the same position in different sheets? I believe that you can create a system similar to the centering of the sheets in the technique of engraving, to obtain the impression of many sheets in the same position.
in that case, maybe you can build a frame in cardboard …belenParticipantmuy interesante! gracias por compartir!
