🧼 How to Clean Your Brayer and Gel Plate 🧼

One of the most common questions I get is: “How do you clean your gel plate and brayer?” The good news is—it’s simple! In this video, I’ll walk you through my favorite quick and easy methods for keeping your tools in great shape, so they last longer and stay ready for your next printing session.

A little care goes a long way in gel printing! Grab your plate, your brayer, and let’s make cleanup part of the creative process.

I’m Jennifer Akkermans, a mixed media visual artist who specializes in Intuitive Printmaking with acrylics on a gel plate. I’m known for bright, bold colors, playful patterns, and a love of happy accidents. I design my own stencils, and I can’t resist using found objects to add unexpected texture.
