Aztek A4709 Airbrush

[Guest]

Hi All,Has anyone had a leak problem with their Aztek 470 airbrush? I have paint dripping out where the chrome ring meets the body of the brush. I just cant seem to cure it. As always any help would be appreciated. :gathering

Hi Just joined the forum, so sorry for a delay, and posting in to an old post, but I didn't see this info in it.

I use Aztek airbrushes too, I have bad news, and very good News too. Sounds like your brush is knackered, if the trigger is sloopy and doesn't seem as springy as it was it's probably gone to Airbrush heaven

However all Aztek Brushes have a lifetime warrenty, contact Aztek via the Testor website.

As long as you have not tried to open the brush, they will replace it free of charge. (cost me £7.00 total for insured postage) the brush was replaced with a brand new one.

Anyone noticed a huge difference in spraying between enamels and acrylics....i can spray forever with enamels...but flippin acrylics block my paasche up inabout 5 minutes flat, then its a ful strip down. (And i do filter the paint!)Can only agree with Nige...Paasche rocks.

Adolf and Eva are nearly finished BTW, get some piccys up soon....if i get time to get back in my loft....BLOODY WORK!

If you Add some flow Enhancer to Acrylic paint you will not have so much of a problem. I use Aztek brushes but never crack open a new jar of paint with out adding it four or five decent drops. (It also helps make Tamiya paints more usable with a brush too) hope this helps.

I use Daler Rowney Flow Enhancer.
