How do I remove the stickers, from my Semogue Brushes?

Post by Modern Ancient »

So, I clean my brushes, every week, and, the stickers are starting to peel. However, when I attempt to remove them, they stay on. Is there anything I could do?

Have you tried liquid decal remover? I found it easily with a 'net search in big box hardware stores here in the USA. It might be more difficult to find in the secret lair.

lol, yeah, the dim lighting looks cool, but makes it hard to find things. Thanks, for the heads up.

I was going to try nail polish remover.

That would be acetone. It's a very harsh solvent and I think it would also remove the finish or if plastic melt it. Either way, I don't think that you'd like the result.
