Maybe some of you "Brush Pros" can provide some definitive answers when it comes to the best way to keep Simpson brush labels in place. Or, maybe your one of those people who doesn't give a rip if your brush loses it label after a shave or two. I realize this has long been, quite possibly, one of the loudest complaints when it comes to Simpson Brushes.
Now, I have already read somewhere in a post here that one could apply clear fingernail polish to the label and it would cause it to adhere longer. Just having received my PJ2 Best last week [my first Simpson], that's exactly what I did before I used it the first time. What I learned: Don't Brush It On!
Mine actually turned out pretty nice, but as ususal with me [OCD kicking in], I thought one little spot needed a bit more 'touchup', so I brushed a little in that area and the letters began to distort. Apparently the nail polish shoud be 'dobbed' or 'dabbed' on without using a 'brushing' movement. In other words, "Don't brush your brush!"
Maybe others have better suggestions with alternative coatings and/or methods. I know all of us would appreciate your input.
