Airbrush Cleaning BRUSHES set

Set of five airbrush cleaning brushes

A set of five brushes in diameters of two, two and a half, three, four and five millimeters, intended for washing out the inside of an airbrush. An airbrush does not clog only at the nozzle: paint dries in the cup as well, in the channel underneath it and in places you cannot reach with a brush or a cloth. The graded diameters cover everything from the narrow channel to the whole cup.

Use

• washing out the paint cup when work is finished
• cleaning the channel between the cup and the body of the gun
• removing deposits from the threads and the seating faces
• cleaning as you go when changing shade

How to clean an airbrush

The most important rule is to clean straight away and not later. Dried acrylic paint is an order of magnitude harder to get out of the channels than wet paint. Pour a cleaner intended for the given type of paint into the cup, let it work for a while and wipe the inside out with the matching brush. Work from the larger diameter to the smaller. Do not use a brush on the needle or the nozzle with force; they are the finest parts of the whole gun and a scratch or a bend will show up in the spray pattern. Rinse the brushes after work and let them dry.

Who the set is for

For anyone who sprays with an airbrush and wants to keep the gun in condition. Regular cleaning saves most of the trouble that comes later with an airbrush: most spray problems start in a deposit, not in the gun itself.

Ventilate when working with cleaners and protect your airways and eyes. Store the set out of the reach of children.
