How do you clean your brushes, Joan? I'd be interested to know if the "Whitaker Treatment" outlined above (below?) might help, particularly applying a conditioner and shaping the brush after washing.

I've found the Trekells a mixed bag for quality control. Some of the filberts I bought were cipped to shape, but not all of them. They are the kind of brush that one should "hi-grade", choosing the best from a big handful of 'em. For my part, they are great value, because the best of them are as good as the best I've seen from other mfgrs, and the price is incredibly attractive. They are overall very good quality, if a bit inconsistent.
