Hello again everyone,
Ive used my airbrushes moderately over the years.Ive always loved airbrush,,especially my vintage Thayer and Chandler which my parents bought for me when i was only 15 years old back in 1973.
I have been semi-active with my artwork as a side business throughout my life since the late 1970s.
I began my website last Dec 2012 and am being commissioned on a regular basis now..I am using my airbrushes much more prominently now.
It, of course, really enhances my works.
Currently I am using an Iwata HP-CP "High Performance Plus" -I loved it from the very beginning. I am having cleaning issues though as i have with my Paasches' -like the Talon.
There must be a better way of maintaining it so I dont have to do a major cleaning in which i have to take it completely apart.
I do use an Iwata Table-Top Cleaning Station along with the proper airbrush cleaners specific for the particular paints i.e. COM-ART paints, Createx, Spectra-Tex etc etc.
I am a bit frustrated ...
With my Iwata HP-CP , after i give it a complete cleaning, it still seems not to be as consistent, at times.
I usually use my airbrushes at 20 psi give or take a couple.
Im not comfortable to go too much higher than that , could that be part of my trouble?:apologetic:
