Review: Great Sponge - Great for tack cleaning!!
Review: Great sponges, a texture painter's absolute dream! - I tested the sponges by making these textured, abstract pieces, among others. Sponges have worked incredibly! Having a large pack is nice, because I can take some sponges and cut them into smaller pieces for smaller paintings/detail work. They are very easy to clean, I only needed water and a couple minutes of time to get all the paint out (darker colors are obviously going to stain them, especially after sitting. Even then, most color stains aren't that bad and don't affect how the sponges work). They shipped well, weren't too squished together in the bag they were in, and are a good size (cutting them up is very easy and makes little mess). Good price for amazing quality AND quantity, I'll definitely be buying again! I can't wait to try making clouds with these, I'll update when I do!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well for me!
*by V***B on March 27, 2019*

Like others who left reviews, I too am a face painter. Festival season is upon us and we need A LOT of sponges to do our jobs in a hygienic manner. This helps us accomplish that goal. I was a bit worried, reading the reviews, but at the cost, I decided it was worth the risk. I am glad I took it! Perhaps the distributor read the comments and changed their methods, but the sponges came full and fluffy, shipped and packaged nicely. None were misshapen. For my purposes, I cut them in half. They hold my paint well and wash easily. I do recommend this product to other painters, and when my sponges turn dingy and it's time for a refresh, I will order more from here again.
