Sonic cleaners

Post by Charles Borges de Oliveir »

Hi,

Can anyone recomend a good sonic cleaner for cleaning red sable and synthetic brushes. The media I am using is just tempra(showcard) and ink.

Thanks for any info you might have

My feeling is that sonic cleaning will put great stress on the hair shafts and shred or break them off. I've operated sonic cleaners that disintigrate
hard paint off of metal like dust flying off. Maybe something less violent like a vibrator coil or counter weighted motor would be
plenty good.
