I used to fully clean like that every day also but I was warned by Coast airbrush that taking apart the head and nozzle everyday will wear out the body threads and cause the brush to leak. The body is brass and the nozzle is platinum and with removing the nozzle over time it will soften the brass. The rest of the body and head may be fine because they are both brass.

No, no, no... I do not mean to clean it every day What I mean is when I finished a project, I cleaned the ABs right after.
Once painting a picture, I kept the paint for two weeks in the ABs and there were no issues with them. I just let some air to go inside the paint passage by closing air nozzle with marker cap, the paint was again ready to spray. Cup lids were always on. Did that every day though. That was good experience for me. Now I'm not afraid to let the paint to be inside AB cup for some days, as there will be no issues. BUT it's only about urethanes. With waterbased we have another story and you know this story a way better than do I, as I use no waterbased. Though m a y b e will try them some time, I keep an eye on E-tac
