I had old chunky white paint hardened on my brayer with no Murphy’s Oil Soap to soak it in. I remembered Tim Holtz saying recently that you could use hand sanitizer to remove acrylic paint. I rubbed some on my brayer, let it sit a couple of minutes, and started rubbing it with a paper towel. I could tell the white was coming off the green layer underneath, but then a strip came off (shown above.)

I kept applying and rubbing and in some cases, whole sections would peel away. I could use just my bare fingers.

It was getting late and aa large section was being stubborn. I applied a thick layer of sanitizer and left it to sit over night.

This morning, I found that the only thing that happened is the sanitizer had evaporated and the stubborn spot would not budge.

I set back in to applying, rubbing and peeling and finally got the brayer as clean as new, even the ends! The End 🤭
