Thank you! We're glad you found it helpful!
Chemically, how many times can a solvent be used? If I were to recycle it endlessly, would the ability to break down oil paint eventually wear out due to the solvent no longer reacting, or does the oil paint not change the chemical makeup of solvent?
@jujuwei solvents generally break down the oil binder in the paints, but there are still minute traces of it left behind. I paint on a daily basis and it takes a very long time for me to dump all the solvent and replace with new. Typically, I do have to fill the brush washer up with more solvent even before this happens (topping it off to bring the level of fluids back up a bit), so it might take me 6 months before I dump it all and start fresh. Now, anyone using resins (like copal, amber, balsams, damar, etc.) in your paintings, should replace the solvents faster than that. They don't settle in the solvents, so you're essentially making a diluted varnish over time.
What solvent should I use to clean oil paint brushes?
Lavender not only is more natural than harsh chemicals such as turpentine, but it also has a nice aroma. Chelsea Brush Cleaner is a natural alternative to turpentine, petroleum mineral spirits and other toxic solvents.

Why is the cleaner and table wet, does it lock but not seal?
This washer locks and is airtight! It is only wet because it had just been filled up with water from the sink for the demonstration :)
@@JerrysartaramaArtSupply - Thank you for your response, I was thinking it maybe something like that. Product is more interesting to me now that I know for sure.

Dried paint at the bottom ! What. I don't think this really cleans the brush properly. Please show with a dark paint on the brush and then the brush latter (6hr/24hrs) after soaking and then try painting with white....
@GeryArty the paint isn't actually dry at the bottom. When the solvents break the oil binders down, the pigments settle to the bottom because they're much heavier than the solvent itself. This is how you can recycle your solvents for reuse over and over again (pour the clear solvent into a separate jar, clean out the leftover pigments, then pour the solvent back in).
The brush washer grate helps to clean your brushes by moving the bristles gently around and allowing the solvent to get to the center of the brush, all the way down to the ferrule. When you do finish with a painting, wipe off the excess paint on a rag or paper towel, and then you only need to swirl the brush around in the brush washer to knock off the rest of the paints. I've had great success in doing this with darker pigments, like burnt sienna or even alizarin crimson, and then switching to a white pigment - all without tainting my white paints with the other colors.
