Bill,

Thanks for the suggestion. I am now about halfway through with the sunflower oil I purchased a month ago and will try the walnut oil next.

Incidentally, I have found that Hain's sunflower oil works well for brush cleaning and have had no problems with my paint drying too slowly. After washing the brush in oil, I just squeeze the bristles in Scott Shop Towels (the blue kind) and continue painting. An added benefit is that if I am too pressed for time to wash my brushes using Masterson's soap, they don't get "crispy", but stay supple for my next painting session.

Chris
