16 oz brush cleaner for artists

A 16-ounce bottle of Metra USA BC-16 brush cleaner and restorer removes dried acrylic, oil, gouache, inks and water-based paints from brushes and airbrushes. The solution restores tools that would otherwise be discarded, keeping supplies ready for repeated use. Artists and hobbyists who work with multiple paint types can rely on one cleaner for all of them.

Replaces single-purpose solvents

Instead of buying separate cleaners for each medium or throwing away stiffened brushes, this formula handles acrylic, oil and water-based residues in a single soak. The jump is worth it when brushes have been left to dry for hours or days and standard soap no longer works. Soaking for up to 24 hours revives heavily loaded bristles without damaging ferrules.

Fits studio and airbrush workflows

For brush cleaning, soak as needed, wipe or brush off softened paint, then wash with mild soap and reshape bristles. For airbrushes, fill the cup and spray between colour changes or after each session; soak only the affected parts overnight for dried paint. The bottle frees up shelf space by consolidating multiple cleaning products into one container.
