That's why I buy a pack of dirt cheap paint brushes for non critical work because it's cheaper to bin them than clean them after use.
I bought 100 foam brushes for £10 so at 10p a pop it just ain't worth cleaning them and they give a good result with any water based paint, PU or enamel paint. They are not recommended for French polish but they are OK. I would not even try them with cellulose, but I just don't use that any more. Two pack is probably a no-no.
