I put clear nail polish over the brand name and the brush number...

I put clear nail polish on any "expensive" brush I own. Keep it looking new and makes me feel like it's still new for the price! Sadly, I used the OPI top coat and it rubbed off....no numbers there anymore and I wish they were still there....

Since you mentioned that OPI top coat DIDN'T work for you... Does anyone know WHAT clear nail polish is best to use? I want to join all of you and be OCD about my MAC brush investment too!
And, like many of you, I want to preserve the number for reference. And, if I end up wanting a BU or multiples of a favorite brush... I want to know what it is! There's nothing wrong, in my eyes, with wanting to keep our nice things nice as long as possible!

I've put clear nail polish on my MAC brushes...and only my MAC brushes. They're the only ones I own with the brand and number engraved into the handle. (I just used e.l.f.'s clear nail polish. So far, so good.)

Never used nail polish on my brushes. I know all the numbers by heart. Having said that, most of the numbers are still on despite daily washing. What makes the numbers come off is the grease from cream products, thus make sure to have dry hands when handling your brushes.
