Velox - Cleaning Brushes

[mark1882]

Hi
I have been applying Velox to the prop and shaft, I have just put the primer on and have used various products to clean the the brushes with limited success.
I have had a look on the Velox website and could and on the paint cans and could not find any information on how to clean the brushes.

Any advice would be much appreciated
Thanks
Mark

I tried acetone and it dissolved it a bit .

Either
use the thinner for Velox plus , which is Marlin Thinner N. 4
or
try International Thinner No. 9 of which 2-methoxy-1-methylethyl acetate is the main ingredient.
(2-methoxy-1-methylethyl acetate is the solvent used in Velox plus antifouling)

Acetone cleaned the brushes between coats for us, maybe not perfect but good enough. They got thrown at the end anyway as we only used cheapos.
