                        Whoa! that's some cocktail you got there MikeV!Big Smile [:D] I'm going to give it a try as I only use windex at the moment and had no idea about the tarnishing. Bow [bow]

                        Stir not the bitterness in the cup I have mixed for myself!

                        Mix 2 parts distilled water, 1 part Windex and 1 part Simple Green cleaner.
                        I put mine in a 16 oz clear squeeze bottle.
                        It works great and is cheap to make.

                        Exposing the airbrush to straight Windex or ammonia over time will tarnish the chrome finish on the airbrush so be aware of that.
