I have the same AB, and had a similar problem after I used future as well. What I did was take some Windex in a bowl, and soaked my AB, and head for about an hour. then I rinsed with water. It did the trick for me.

Put some water in the jar and connect it to the airbrush.
Hold a rag over the end of the nozzle tightly while you press down on the trigger and pull it back. See if it bubbles into the jar.

Badger 150 not spraying
Posted by Duke Maddog on Saturday, January 8, 2005 5:25 PM
Hey, I did a search n the Forums, bnut couldn't find anything that fit my problem. I have a Badger 150 and when I tried to airbrush my Future, it wouldn't draw the Future out of the bottle. I checked all the connections, checked all the openings to see if they were clogged, (they weren't) and I checked the seal of everything. I even checked the bottle to see if the air hole was clogged, and it wasn't. I am stumped. It worked perfectly a couple days ago, and I did a thorough cleaning on it when I was done. I re-assmbled it all correctly, I didn't leave any pieces out.

I checked my pressure from the compressor, it was working fine and putting out the pressure properly. The hose was connected correctly with no leaks anywhere. Inside the bottle, the tube was clear, as well as the siphon top.

Again, I am stumped, I have no idea what's causing this not to work. I hope someone can help.
