Gundam Modeling Official thread - Part 5

usually airbrush comes with the small spanner for unscrewing the nozzle.
try using tweezers to unscrew? if too tight, add a drop of thinner coz it may be because of dried paint

ok i will try this as well. yah came with a spanner that doesnt work round unscrew round, and the spanner is like few mm wider, hence cant bite into the nozzle

any airbrush expert here ?

my ab doesnt work the air is there but no paint/thinner spraying out
how to solve ??

I've had the same problem as u a few mths back and what i did initially was soak my nozzle in industrial thinner for 2 hrs which still did not work because the clog was that bad. i gave up and went to order replacement nozzles off taobao.

i had the same problem previously. soak overnight in thinner also no use. so went to buy tool cleaner solution and soaked overnight again. managed to clear the clot.

Despite industrial thinner being industrial grade, but somehow tool wash is still better when it comes to cleaning air brushes.

Another equipment you guys can use, ultrasonic cleaner. It is about 20-30 quid off TB and it will clean your tools like brand new.

Ultrasonic cleaner I bought before from mustafa. Near the car care section at top level. Think about 80 bucks. Taobao cheaper. Lasted me till now 3 yrs. Stripped airbrush n put in a cup with thinner then fill ultrasonic cleaner with water. Feels like new airbrush after that

Bro there's no MG 00Q Full Saber. You have to get a MG 00Q and a 3rd party add on for the full saber.
