Initial airbrush thoughts.....
Having now used my new AB for a few days, had a bit of practice and actually painted a model with it, what do I think? A few things that always put me off getting an AB have turned out not to be an issue. I thought they would be very difficult to use and take months (or even years) to get to... -

Plus, as an...- pjgtech

Back flushing when cleaning AB?
I know that some peeps do back flush when cleaning their airbrush and some don't. EG: blocking the nozzle and applying (gentle) air pressure with AB cleaner inside, to force the cleaner back and to cause it to gently agitate/bubble up, etc. The main objection to this practice seems to be a fear...
