A soak in a water and White vinigar solution will break up any soap scum and once done rinse and lather up with your shave soap and rinse again. ( 50/50 solution of vinigar to water soak for 30 min)because of my new found love of synthetics as soon as I've got the privileges I'll be looking to trade my cherry wood SOC.
Is there a method to get them nice, clean and sanatised prior to sale? Esp if it's not been used for a while and stored? I suppose I have the same question for synthetics.
Thanks

No I have not!Anyone seen a test if brush is sanitized or "just" cleaned after this treatment?
When you do this soak is it in a hot water/vinegar solution and do you fully immerse the brush to include the knot? Is this also a good way to do the badgers? Also, I've seen recommendations to occasionally comb through a badger brush ... do you also do this on a boar?A soak in a water and White vinigar solution will break up any soap scum and once done rinse and lather up with your shave soap and rinse again.

No it does not need to be hot water / vinegar , no need to have the handle in the solution just the knot, yes you can comb both badger and boar carefully, solution works to clean both badger and boarWhen you do this soak is it in a hot water/vinegar solution and do you fully immerse the brush to include the knot?

Is that Clare Bow next to last on the right?I use baby shampoo to clean my brushes from time to time. A lot of shampoos and conditioners for adults got silicones. With most of the products for babies you are on the safe side not to ruin your knots.
