Was cleaning out the shed and found a couple of dried out acrylic paintbrushes. Decided to try the boiling-in-vinegar trick found on the internet to see if they could be rescued.
After placing in boiling vinegar for 5 minutes .. hey presto!
- One softened completely and could be fully recovered with washing afterwards in warm soapy water using a kitchen scourer,
-The other still completely stuffed and is now in the bin.
But it's worth a try if you have some vinegar and are desperate!
