Medea (Iwata) Super Lube is a needle lubricant that you apply to the needle of the airbrush. It may be available in the UK. I am not sure.
Badger also makes a product similar to it called, 'Regdab Needle Juice'.

I would also highly recommend that you get some Medea Super Lube and put it on the needle as it will almost eliminate the possibility of paint adhering to the needle should it not get cleaned well enough.
It also makes the airbrush trigger much smoother. Wink [;)]

Medea Super Lube - what is it? can you get it in the UK?

LOL, just say Bwog's post on a similar topic, but I'd still like to know about what to disassemble and stuff. Thx. By the way, love Swanny's Complete Future website.

Cleaning a Badger
Posted by Anonymous on Tuesday, November 18, 2003 8:06 AM
No, not a question about hunting season. I recently bought my 1st airbrush, after 15 years of brush + spray can use. As you can guess, I'm thrilledCool [8D]. And also paranoid that I'll destroy the thing if I don't take care of it the right way. How are people cleaning their Badger 360's? I understand about spraying the appropriate thinner/cleaner through between colors, but what is the routine at the end of the day? I removed the needle and washed with soapy water (I'd been spraying Future) and let air dry. Is anyone taking apart the AB head and cleaning anything else, or I am doing ok with this? Thanks for the help!!
