The customary oil painting equipment can be employed for alkyd paints. Bristle and sable brushes, palette knives, and palettes are all used and cleaned in the usual way. Tools should be rinsed in solvent directly after they are used, since the rapid-drying paint may harden and spoil the brushes if they are left to be cleaned on the next day. [p. 200]
