Cleaning your acrylic brushes is quite straightforward, and keeping a few of these hints and tips in mind will help keep the process efficient. Get a bottle of monomer, dappen dish, water, lint-free cloths or cotton pad, and a vertical brush holder. While this is true at some point, there are cases where acetone may be the last resort for getting your acrylic brush clean and usable once more.

It’s also something you should be thinking about while you paint, as well as when you finish painting. Firstly, after every use, you should give your nail brushes a good wipe with a lint-free cloth and some monomer.
