A nice little tip for cleaning brushes. My wife ordered a chopstick holder for the washer. I use the rinse aid for washers and run in a regular load dish washer cycle. This works for Acrylic but I am not sure about oils. It does a really nice job of washing cruddy brushes and softens the paint enough so that you can easily pull out any paint that get stuck in the brush. Nail polish remover is a nice addition to do before the washing as well. It's not perfect but it can save a favorite brush that might have thrown away.
