Best Answer: I just started using Ammonia + Water (warm even better) and it works great removing old or hard to clean paint from brushes and other art materials. Ammonia is stronger than soap so with less you do more; just use a cap of ammonia, add some water, let the brush soak overnight and then rinse it.inse and dry with the bristles pointing up. When you use oil paints first use turpentine to remove the majority of the paint. It's not the most glamorous part of painting but it has to be done right away before the paint starts to set in and ruins your brushes.
