I wanted to share with you a great video tutorial I stumbled across today relating to airbrush tip drying. This is a big issue for us in Colorado, made worse if you're using acrylics and lacquers.
After watching this video I realized that I was using poor technique with my double action airbrush. I'm the guy he describes who releases air and paint at the same time which leads to paint building and drying on the needle tip. A bad habit I developed over the years. The only thing I don't agree with in this video is back blowing your airbrush. Also thin and mix your paint before you add it to the color cup. But as my wife likes to say "you do you". Give it a look. I think you'll find he's a good instructor and the information useful.
