Re: Shining Feather Soft Scrub Brush Basin

Before we all jump on the scrub brush bandwagon, just wanted to add that Denise mentioned to me that the scrub brush gave her rounds the "fly aways" and she had to condition them. FYI

I am not seeing that with mine, I hope I don't, but I will be looking for it for sure! I use ivory soap and alcohol at gigs so I use and master preservative and soap to condition, and Brush Shaper regularly at home to keep my brushes conditioned.

I don't know why it was my round brushes...my squares and filberts felt fine. Maybe it's the way they are constructed with lots of layers. It was more of a rough feeling not splayed or anything but I haven't conditioned my brushes in the past either so that might have to be part of my routine.

We'll have to keep updating this thread as we use the baths at gigs.

I like to condition brushes...it is a kind of obsession Shocked

Maybe I'll save them up and bring a bag of the scrub brushes with me to FABAIC and hand them out if anyone wants some. Otherwise, feel free to PM how many you want me to mail you.

Gilded Cat, I pm'd you yesterday. I'd love a couple of those scrub brushes. Just let me know how much to send you for postage. Thanks!

FYI! the velcro did not hold up, I am going to go look for the aquarium glue, something that will not leach anything into the water. My brushes are still looking good. Very Happy

Please let us know how the aquarium glue works! Idea

TheGildedCat wrote:I have access to numerous discarded surgical scrub brushes. They come with a sponge attached, but it's very easy to remove. I'd be happy to ship them to anyone just for the cost of shipping. I hate to throw so many away, but we throw away usually 2 per surgery (if two people scrub in), and there are usually several surgeries per day. They're not used on patients, only on the doctor's hands. Let me know if you'd like some and how many.
This is what they look like:

Again, the sponge pulls right out.

Julie, how much to send 2 or 3 over my way? v4n 0w3

by 1HappyNut on Fri Feb 03, 2012 7:29 pm

Kristal, will you let me know the answer? It's probably similar to what I'll pay and I haven't gone to search locally for them yet, so curious.

by pjhamel on Fri Feb 03, 2012 11:45 pm

I was wondering, would one of these work? They are a lot cheaper than the sensory brushes or the medical scrub brushes.
