Initial Rinse and Ferrule Scrub (Water-based Paint)

What happens here

Set your water temperature to lukewarm. Under the running water, take a small brass brush and gently scrub the ferrule (the metal band that holds the bristles) of the paint brush. Focus on this area as paint often accumulates and hardens here, which can damage the brush over time if not removed. Be very gentle to avoid damaging the bristles.

Goal: Remove paint buildup from the ferrule of the brush.
