Our Prep Bundle contains everything you need to correctly prep your furniture for painting. Artisan Prep Pads make your job easy- each pack contains 4 sponges of the most commonly used grits.  Use 80 Grit for rough sanding, removing paint and aggressively smoothing imperfections. The 120 grit is great for smoothing surfaces and heavy distressing. The 220 grit sponge is perfect for subtle distressing and sanding between coats if required. The 320 grit will leave your surfaces butter smooth. They are flexible and washable, and one of our favourite tips is to use them  with Easy Scrub... clean and sand in one easy step! Pro Tip: When sanding, start at the coarsest grit and move through the finer grits Prep furniture for painting like a Pro with Artisan Easy Scrub! Easily remove all traces of grease, dirt, oil and mould, leaving a squeaky clean surface ready to paint. Better still Easy Scrub will slightly degloss your surface ensuring you have the perfect painting experience. Just mix a scoop of Easy Scrub in 1l of warm water.  We like to mix it in a spray bottle- simply spray on the surface, leave for a few minutes to work its magic and then scrub with a prep pad! Wipe off all the accumulated gunk and then wipe over again with a clean wet cloth to remove all traces of grime. Our Artisan Brush Soap is a must have in your tool bag. It combines coconut, olive and rice bran oils with the gorgeous perfume of Persian lime and lemongrass to keep your precious brushes clean, conditioned and smelling sweet! Perfect for all acrylic and water based paints, and all brush types, it is also a safe and gentle way to wash your hands after painting. To Use:

  • Rinse your brush with cool water then swirl the bristles over the soap.
  • Gently massage the rich lather through the brush bristles, or swirl bristles on an Artisan Scrubby.
  • Continue to massage foam through bristles and then thoroughly rinse your brush under warm water. Always rinse your brush holding it tip down so paint residue doesn’t get lodged in the ferrule during cleaning.
  • Spin off excess water
  • Shape bristles and leave to dry

Our Brush Soap can also help to remove old, dried paint from the bristles and around the ferrule of your brushes. Apply the soap and massage in as described above. When you have a thick foam, either wrap in Clingwrap or place the brush into a jar of warm/hot water and soak overnight. Reapply soap in the morning, working up a rich lather, then rinse thoroughly and enjoy using your rescued brush. Rinse soap after use and leave unsealed to dry .Keep jar sealed when not in use. Our solid bar soap comes in a 110g jar, and being a bar soap will last for ages! Artisan Brush Soap is non-toxic, solvent free, and biodegradable. Happy Prepping!
