Hello!
I think I have figured out my ongoing clogging issues with my HP-C Plus airbrush. I tried airbrushing with it once again and started clogging approx 30 seconds into it... this is after a thorough cleaning. The silly bugger even starting brushing own its own... without me pressing the trigger. Very Casper the friendly ghost kinda way...
Anyhow, I noticed that when I pulled it apart, underneath the trigger (or finger button) there is a small round section that is pushed down when you press the trigger - this section is connected to the hose. I have attached an image as I don't have the language to explain it, so I hope this makes sense.
Please see No. 12 in the attached. I cleaned this with a cotton bud dipped in Windex and removed a fair bit of paint. I also pushed it in and swished the cotton bud around. It certainly has made the trigger "softer" as it has a smoother press down action. But I feel it still needs more cleaning. How can I do this? Suggestions as to how best to clean this area please.
