cup. This step is optional, but ensures that there is no dirt or debris in the
paint.
Tip:Test the mixture on a scrap piece of material before beginning your
project
Warning:Follow any manufacturer's safety instructions that maybe included
with the paint, and use a little common sense. Solvent based paints and
thinners/reducers are flammable, so keep them away from open flames.
Use solvent based paints in a well ventilated area, and wear a respirator if
needed.
G. HOW TO CLEAN AIRBRUSH
1. Empty the jar and clean it with solvent.
2. Turn on the compressor and connect the airbrush.
3. Refill the cup with water or solvent, then block the needle cover with a
finger and press the operation lever. The air flows backward into the nozzle
to clean the paints remained in the airbrush.
4. Disconnect the airbrush from the compressor.
5. Remove the nozzle and needle and soak them in solvent until clean.
Use an old toothbrush and toothpicks to remove any paint.
CAUTION: Do not immerse the airbrush.
Note: Do not use metal objects to clean the nozzle to prevent damage to
passages. If the needle is bent, have it replaced by a qualified technician.
6. Use solvent to wipe down the airbrush body.
7. Lubricate the airbrush after cleaning. A non-silicon oil or a light lubricant
may be used on threaded connections before storing.
