TIL soaking my brush heads in hot vinegar overnight saves me so much scrubbing

I was wasting like 20 minutes every week scraping crusted creosote off my wire brushes. Tried soaking them in a bucket of hot white vinegar overnight and they came out almost clean the next morning. Has anyone else found a better soak solution for heavy buildup?

A buddy of mine in the tree service business swears by adding a cup of baking soda to the hot vinegar for his paintbrushes. He says it fizzes up and lifts that dried-on muck even faster.
