I'm a bad person. I don't really clean my airbrush properly. OK so I blast some brush cleaner (cellulose thinners I think) through it after use and then squirt some airbrush cleaner in as well. But I don't strip it down and give it the love I think you are supposed to. And sometimes it plays up because of clods of paint in the mechanism. Not often but once is too much.
So I though, why not put the mucky bits in some brake fluid to loosen the paint ?
I had planned to leave them in overnight. I got distracted and I think they got nearly a week. Still, the paint was loose and with a bit of a scrub previously painty items have come up shiny and clean. You can even see through my previously filthy mucky turps jar...
