Does one use lacquer thinner to clear the airbrush out afterwards?

Thanks,

Eric

Yes. And I use Aqua Gloss and it just barely affects the metallic finish, not near as bad as Future.

Lacquer thinner is my main cleaning solvent for the AB.

Same here, I use it for everything including acrylics.

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.

This thread came in just in perfect timing.

Im an Armor guy but I will start my firtst plane.

A P47 from Mexican WWII 201 Squadron. I was also wondering what color of Alclad use. I will go with brushed aluminum and airframe to have different tones.

Hopefully everything will go OK.
