tip....[tip]..............a piece of private or secret information

a useful hint or idea; a basic, practical fact................
Just wanted to share a little tip I discovered!! See the grungy brayer???  Would you like to know how to make it look like brand new???
I love this little can of miracles!!! I only have one brayer(don't know how I did without it)! Well, silly me decided to use it to roll out my polymer clay with it....now I also wanted to use it in my art journals and other things. Now the dilemma is  I have gooky clay all over it. We don't want that transferred to our wonderful art pieces we put our little hearts into....no, no, no!!!  Ok, ok, now for the tip....hehe. Just take a piece of paper towel and spray some miracle in a can on it and wipe your gookiness away!!! Wash with warm soap and water after and wa-lah... it will be all shiny and new!!! You have a brand spanking new brayer! Well, of course if it's just acrylic paint you have to get off of it warm soapy water will do the trick! So , if you use it to glue things down, flatten out something with glitter on it and roll out that really sticky polymer clay..this will work for ya! Yeah, I had all that stuff on mine and now it looks like new!!! I am a happy camper:)))) Ummm....no it doesn't take a lot to make me giddy...lol!
Well, if you don't like you're brayer to have all that stuff on it give this a go and let me know what ya think!!!
Have a fun weekend everyone!

  1. Love WD-40! It is a miracle in a can (or pen - I have WD-40 in a pocket friendly pen-like container).

  2. Great tip, Bev! I just bought a second brayer at a garage sale, but up until then I only had one. And I used to see how everyone used theirs to spread all kinds of paint and things around, and I didn't dare use mine like that! Now I can use it for anything, and know that it will "come clean"!
