Thread: Simpson Users: Help with Simpsons Chubby?

A brand-new brush will rarely hold water until it breaks in.

A white vinegar soak and a good shampoo will greatly improve performance.

About an ounce of white vinegar, in a cup of warm water, just to cover up to the top of the knot, soak for 10-15 minutes, then a dollop of good hair shampoo in the hand and lather and rinse a couple of times.

Dry thoroughly, by shaking the water from the brush, then drape a dry wash cloth or microfiber over your hand, as if you are about to shake hands. Flick the brush, across the index finger a few times, lightly brushing the index finger. The towel will absorb the water. Now move the towel so a dry part covers the index finger, turn the brush a quarter turn and repeat.

Your brush should now be almost completely dry. Hang to fully dry.

Once clean it will bloom nicely and hold water much better.
