Are these brushes compatible with multiple mediums? (acrylic, gouache, Oil)

This set of brushes is best for oils and can be manageable for acrylics and/or gouache. They would be inappropriate for use with watercolors as they are far too stiff. These brushes do shed, so that is an issue too. I paint with heavy body acrylics and I rarely use these brushes as the bristles tend to fray. When I first got these brushes as my starter set, I thought they were pretty good. Now, with 4 months of acrylic painting experience under my belt, I wish I had not purchased them. I would have been better off buying 5 or 6 well-chosen brushes for the same money from Jerry's or Blick's.

are these made in China? Please answer if you know exactly. thanks

Thanks for the information Julia E. I had this same question and your answer was helpful… as opposed to being told that hogs are ‘tortured’ to make brushes! Seriously AC, yours was not an answer to this question in any way, it was your personal political statement and useless to us. I suppose you never eat bacon either, save the HOGS! Amazing… now go save some chickens too, right?

could i clean these with turpinoid?

Yes if you are using oil based paints. No for acrylic paint. Liquid soap and water for acrylic paint. I use mineral spirits to clean oil brushes first and then follow it with mild soap and water. I use Murphy's Oil Soap or Castille liquid soap.
