Default Removing starch from hake brush

I recently bought a pro arte ron ranson hake brush for cyanotype
Trouble is the hairs on the brush are stiff with starch, does anyone know how to remove all the starch from the brush
I dont want the starch getting in the cyanotype coating
Thanks in advance
Paddy

No problem, just wash it in warm water to remove the starch

Thanks for the reply
I got an email off the seller saying it was coated in a weak gum arabic solution
Cleaned it off now with lukewarm water
