Hi folks.
I've had an airbrush for approximately 1 week so that'll give you some idea of my experience level!
So far the major thing I'm struggling with is getting the same quality of spray each time I pick up the brush. I clean it through with the provided cleaning fluid each time I put it down for any amount of time. But I'll pick it up for the next bit and I get a completely different spray quality.
The brush is a Steenbeck Ultra, gravity feed. 0.4
The Compressor is a cheapo Aldi 120 special, but with an additional regulator
Paints are the Vajelo? Javelo? Valejo? I'm not near the paints at the moment, the RC versions anyway. I'm shaking them all up the same, I'm wondering if I'm cleaning correctly, but I'm not sure what else I'd do. I half fill the cup, swirl the cleaner and spray it all through, then wipe out the bowl with clean tissue, then blow through another bit of cleaner.
I was told by the supplier to never touch the needle, which I haven't up till now, so how would you make sure that's spotless?
This is obviously a brush towards the budget range, are more expensive brushes easier to get along with?
Many thanks.
