Keeping/Discarding MF applicators

How long is it safe to re-use MF applicators? I've had one MF applicator that I've been using for a year now only with Zaino. I really don't know if I should wash and re-use it or throw it out completely? I keep it in a zip clock bag so it doesn't see any contaminants.



Thoughts, opinions?
 
I have had great results with washing them the same way I do MF's. They last many washes and I'm more comfortable about using a clean applicator.

I reuse them until I no longer feel comfortable with their condition. It's a number of factors that play a part. Staining, overall softness... fraying etc.

Are foam applicators safe to use on paint too? I just bought a set of three locally.



They are fine. Just make sure they are clean and you should not have any problems.
 
I use them until I can no longer keep them "clean" I got about 50 of them on closeout from work so I'm not to attached to them.
