Your brushes should now be usable again. Unfortunately this cannot be done too many times because the turpentine will start to damage the bristles, so make sure to regularly wash your brushes.

Is this only for synthetic brushes? What about natural hair brushes which are frayed?
Hey! Can you tell me what is the use of wrapping the bristles in aluminium foil?
The article literally says “to retain the brush shape”
I’ve seen other tutorials say to mix vinegar with the boiled water, would you recommend it?
Awesome guide, By the way, this guide "Can You Spray Stain With An Airless Sprayer" also contain useful information.
Great post! I found using silicone face scrubber pads to really aid in removing paint from deep in the bristles where the ferrule starts. This is esp helpful for precision brushes. I use a pipette to drop a small amount of paint thinner or turpentine onto the silicone pad and then work the bristles into the little silicone nubs. A 2 pack of these pads can be found at Dollar Tree though I've also seen similar ones eBay, Amazon & Alibaba, Daiso & Asian markets (beauty aisle). https://www.dollartree.com/facial-scrubb...
