Andrea, I have also been using Master's cleaner for many years and love it. If you buy the large tub size you'll spend about $20, but it will last about a year.

Incidentally, I have found that the absolute strongest solvent for dried paint is Turpenoid Natural by Webber in the green can. Although the solvent is unsuitable for any type of medium or paint mixture, it can dissolve dried paint off of anything: wood, glass, bristle, you name it.

I like to use Gamosol for general brush cleaning during a painting session, but then switch to Turpenoid Natural for a deeper cleaning at the end of a session. Then I finish with Master's and warm water. Turpenoid Natural also has the unique ability to mix with both Gamosol and water, thus it cleans most of the Gamosol out of my brushes, allowing them to soap up much faster in the Master's soap so that I use less of it. Hope this is helpful.
