Quick Tip - Tip Dry

[airbrushtutor]

Quick video explaining why tip dry occurs and the quick things you can do to fix it. Video should also mention that you can flush your airbrush by removing the airbrush's handle, loosening the needle chuck, holding down the air and pulling the needle back a couple of times. but it didn't. Enjoy it anyway!

Does anyone use Q- tip to clean the needle I have used a a little thinner on it. I am new to this so If that's a bad idea please explain why thanks

That's no problem at all as long as you leave the needle in the forward position, otherwise the little hairs get stucked in between your nozzle and needle.

with urothanes you can use *r*e*t*ar*d*er to avoid tip dry to an extent same with createx but it doesn't seem to work as well with water base.
