Contact cement and brushes... what to do?
Was slopping the contact cement around this morning, and wondered if this tidbit was ever posted. I use the big gallon can of contact cement ( Big Red - no not sponsored)... an have found that the cheapest (less than a dollar) of china bristle can be left hanging in the can, and then used for what appears forever. I do this by tying a piece of plastic wrap (piece of Wal-Mart Bag this time) through end hole, and simply closing lid upon the wrap. Just hang bristles into glue, and you're ready to go come next job....

I used to just jam the whole brush in a 1:1:1:1 mixture of gasoline, toluene, chloroform and ether) and seal it in up in a jar... nothing seems to be able to set then (unfortunately, I'm not able to easily obtain the ingredients for that mix at the moment).
