Care and Cleaning :
4Mix colors directly on the Sofft Applicator , in the pans , or on your painting surface .
Demonstration video & downloads available : PaintDrawBlend . com / dawn-emerson-collection
4Simply wipe the applicator on a cloth or paper ( kitchen ) towel each time you change colors to keep colors pure , and clean the pan if it gets dirty with a clean sponge , paper towel or feather duster .
4Maintain the applicator by cleaning with a few drops of a mild dish / hand soap ( e . g . Dawn ) and warm water . Gently squeeze and rinse out thoroughly , then allow to air dry completely . The applicator will not become totally clean , but will be free of pigment and ready to reuse .
