How to Use

1. **Preparation:** Before the first use, gently rinse the bristles in cool water to remove any protective glue. Allow the brush to soak for a few minutes until the bristles are soft and pliable.

2. **Loading Ink:** Gently squeeze out excess water from the bristles. Dip the brush into your ink, loading it to the desired capacity for your stroke work.

3. **Cleaning:** Immediately after each use, wash the brush thoroughly with clean water until all ink residue is gone to maintain the integrity of the bristles.

Care & Safety

After washing, gently reshape the bristles to a fine point with your fingers.

Always hang the brush vertically with the tip pointing down to air dry completely. This prevents moisture from seeping into the handle and causing damage.

Do not cap the brush while it is still wet, as this can lead to mildew and bristle damage. Proper drying is essential for the brush's longevity.
