Clean brushes in an eco-friendly way after oiling

OLI NATURA brush cleaner in organic quality is gentle on natural-hair bristles and the environment.

If you want to reuse brushes soaked with wood oil and similar products several times, the bristles need to be cleaned again. However, water and dishwashing liquid alone are not enough for oxidatively drying natural oils. In the past, cleaners based on turpentine substitute, petroleum ether, or other solvents were the only way to remove wood oil from brush bristles and similar items. Today, however, there are sustainable and environmentally friendly alternatives whose formulations contain none of these controversial ingredients. Such as our »OLI-NATURA brush cleaner« in organic quality.

Natural brush cleaner is gentle on natural-hair bristles and the environment

This brush cleaner is biodegradable and reliably removes oils and waxes from brushes, rollers, and similar items. It also works effectively on paints, varnishes, grease, soot, tar, and bitumen, making it indispensable in the home and workshop. It cleans gently yet powerfully without an unpleasant odor. The »OLI-NATURA brush cleaner« contains a very high proportion of ingredients of natural origin and is vegan. It is water-based and also contains coconut fatty acid, orange oil, cellulose, and Citrus sinensis. This means it is gentle not only on high-quality natural-hair bristles but also on the environment.

Application could not be easier

Pour some brush cleaner into a container and move your brush around in the liquid until no coating can be seen in the brush. Sometimes this is faster if you work the brush against the bottom of the container. Then rinse the brush under water, dry it with some kitchen paper if necessary, and leave it to dry - that's it. Dried-on tools can also be soaked in the »OLI-NATURA brush cleaner«. Then simply wash them with water and leave them to dry (do not stand them on their bristles). Once cleaned in this way, you can reuse the brush several times.

Pro tip: Save brush cleaner and protect your wallet

If you often work with oxidatively drying wood oils and want to waste as little brush cleaner as possible, it is advisable to use two glasses for cleaning brushes: For the »coarse cleaning«, work oil-soaked brushes thoroughly in the first glass with brush cleaner and then dry them with kitchen paper or a cloth. For the »fine cleaning«, place the pre-cleaned brushes in the second glass containing clean brush cleaner. This ensures that brushes are thoroughly clean and allows the brush cleaner to be reused several times. As soon as the glass with the clean brush cleaner becomes contaminated, simply use it for coarse cleaning. This saves money.
