If the acrylic paint has dried in the airbrush, I, too, use lacquer thinner or acetone but make sure you AB has Teflon seals and not rubber O rings.
I also use hardware lacquer thinner to clean out Tamiya acrylic from my airbrush. Works a charm.

I spray a cup of distilled water to finish up, just to remove any left over chemicals.
Am I the only one here who clean an AB with a hardware lacquer thinner?
Spraying and cleaning I still have to wear this...

You can also add a little Windex with ammonia to the 91% isopropanol. Works very well.

I use 91% IPA to clean my 3 Iwata ABs after spraying Tamiya. I've never had a problem.

You can use iso alcohol 90 or just plain water to clean Tamiya from an airbrush.
Retarder is not a cleaner--it's a substance keeps the paint wet longer. I clean Tamiya acrylics with Windex or lacquer thinner. You could probably use alcohol, too. Check your Airbrush paperwork to see what they recommend.
hello modelers! I have a expo super detail gravity feed airbrush so is this tamiya paint retarder good to clean acrylic from my airbrush.
