5.1 Cleaning the Airbrush
<continued>
Note:
We recommend using the mildest solvent to clean the types of
paint used. If water-based paints were used, then water is usually
sufficient to clean out your airbrush. Be sure to follow all instruc-
tions that come with the solvents.
Tip:
Perform all your cleaning in a contained area (ie. cookie sheet,
plate, bowl) to prevent parts from getting lost or damaged. It also
helps keep any mess in a contained area.
5.2 Cleaning Between Color Changes
Empty out remaining paint in the paint reservoir and wipe off as
much residual paint as possible with a paper towel. Spray out
any excess paint.
Partially fill the paint reservoir with the appropriate solvent and
use a brush to breakdown paint in the reservoir. Pour out this
dirty solution.
Partially fill the paint reservoir again with solvent and spray the
solvent at a heavy spray setting into a paper towel, waste
container or similar material.
Repeat spraying solvent until airbrush is flushed free of color.
