How do you clean your spinning machine?

Post by flojo »

My spin art machine is so full of paints I just want to emerse it in water to clean it but I know that would ruin it. How do you keep yours clean?

I'm anal...I clean it with wet paper towels during and after use to keep paint from building up and staying there!

rubbing alcohol is awesome at cleaning inks up... but plain hand sanitizer contains the alcohol without drying as fast :) i love it for really messy clean ups with a paper towel

Since it's plastic, only the alcohol inks will "stick" so just wipe with a paper towel or wipe or whatever.
Just don't immerse it in water or even pour water on the top - too easy for water to reach the motor.....

Wipe with paper towels or baby wipes, between colors and let the wipes/towels dry. Use them for ATC backgrounds.
