NOTE:
To achieve the best results when spraying it is always best to start with the air brush clean and totally
free from old paint deposits, dirt etc. Therefore the air brush should be thoroughly cleaned immediately
after each operation.
5.1.
Remove the empty gravity cup, wipe the inside thoroughly, including the lid.
5.2.
Fill the cup half full of thinners and re-attach to the air brush.
5.3.
Spray into a suitable container, this will clean the needle, fluid cap and air tip. Hold a soft cloth over the
fluid cap and spray again, this will force air and thinners through the air brush and clean the internal
moving parts. Should the air brush become clogged with paint, remove the needle, cap and tip as follows:
5.3.1. Squeeze the two halves of the housing (01) together to prevent the nozzle seat rotating.
5.3.2. Using the spanner provided unscrew the nozzle and remove the needle.
5.4.
Clean the needle, fluid cap and air tip with a small piece of cotton wool dipped in thinners.
5.5.
Re-assemble the air brush by reversing the above instruction.
5. CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
4.6.
Holding the air brush about 6 inches from the surface press the trigger. Using short strokes, move the air
brush at a steady rate, parallel to the surface (Fig.2). Best results are achieved with a good constant
motion. Start the motion before pressing the trigger and follow a through motion after releasing
the trigger (Fig.3).
4.7.
Apply a light coat of paint, let it dry, then apply another coat. Continue with this method until the desired
coverage is reached.
DO NOT
spray too heavily.
Note:
When using quick drying paints, it is advisable to clean or immerse the fluid end of the air brush in a
compatible solvent between sprays.
