A quick heads up

[john i am]

Unless I've missed something, I use IPA (Isopropylalcohol) and/or Vallejo Airbrush cleaner to celan my airbrush. No problems.

It's a cheaper option !

This might be of interest, I have been using international scale modelers airbrush cleaner, dear but works great and is fantastic for cleaning brushes too.
I bought some cheap (carplan I think it was) screenwash for a motor in currently have on hire and it smelt exactly the same and looked very similar if only a little more concentrated in colour than the ISM cleaner. May be watering down with some de ionised water and trying out.
I take it these products won't damage a decent airbrush like my iwata hp-ch or h&s infinity?

I've not had any problems using screenwash with my Infinity CR Plus - ir doesn't attack the chrome.

You are not the first to say that about ISM airbrush cleaner. I couldn't comment..... Anyway, yes, screen was is a cheap bulk cleaner for airbrushed and hairy brushes if using Acrylic paint. As many above, I use it for the initial clean up then, when finished I generally flush through with a small amount of the thinner for whatever paint I am using next. It as works added to an ultrasonic cleaner, just a few drops.

I don't say you shouldn't use the expensive stuff but this method makes it much cheaper.

Well- I think you should read this as I don't want to go over old ground.....
