Brush opening method

Let's talk about the method of opening the brush first:

1. Twist the nib gently with your fingers: from the nib to the root, the bristles need to be completely dispersed.

2. After all brushes are turned on, remove the floating hairs in the nib.

3. Soak the new pen with cold water or warm water, and avoid scalding with boiling water.

Here are two methods I have used:

(1) Put it in a pen washer (or other container). The depth of the water should be such that the nib is submerged in the water, and the nib does not touch the bottom of the container.

(2) Use clips (long tail clothespins, etc.). ) Clip the brush to the side of the bottle so that the pen tip is suspended in the bottle. Be careful not to let the nib press against the bottom of the bottle.

4. After soaking the pen, gently clean the pen to remove the glue.

5. After washing, straighten the pen and hang it up.

Expanding knowledge: how to save the brush after use?

The best way to save the brush is to hang it on the pen rack. Book lovers who don't have a pen can find a substitute such as a hook. If it doesn't work, put the brush flat.

Don't put the wet pen tip up. If the pen tip that is not completely dried is placed upward, it is easy to pour the residual ink into the pen holder, causing the pen tip to fall off and the pen holder to crack.
