How to clean resin from brushes and tools



Immediate Brush Cleaning after Use

After completing epoxy resin projects, it is crucial to clean your brushes promptly to prevent the resin from hardening. Start by using absorbent paper to remove most of the residual resin. Next, soak the brushes in a container filled with warm water and mild soap, gently massaging them to ensure all resin residues are eliminated. Finally, rinse them thoroughly with lukewarm water and allow them to air dry.

Removal of Hardened Resin from Tools

When resin hardens on tools like spatulas or pallets, a more thorough approach is required. We recommend using scrapers or metal spatulas to remove the thicker layers of hardened resin. Subsequently, soak the tools in acetone or denatured alcohol to dissolve the more stubborn residues. Once the resin softens, proceed with cleaning using absorbent paper and soap.

Use of Specialized Solvents for Cleaning

In certain instances, particularly when dealing with highly resistant resin, specific solvents may be necessary for effective cleaning. RESINPRO offers a diverse range of solvents specially designed for resin cleaning. Before using these solvents, ensure to carefully follow the manufacturer's instructions and wear the appropriate protective gear.

Proper Storage of Tools for Longevity

Properly storing tools used with resin is essential for extending their lifespan. After cleaning, ensure that the tools are completely air-dried before storage. Additionally, store them in a cool, dry place away from heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent any residual resin from hardening again. This practice will help maintain the quality of your tools over time.
