Clean Your Airbrush Thoroughly 2

Hi Friends

A very important subject again today, following on from yesterday…cleaning…

You could use lacquer thinners as well for cleaning out acrylic paint from your airbrush, but clean water is cheaper and more environmentally friendly.

Before cleaning, empty any unused paint back into its own container. Spray the remaining paint in the airbrush out onto waste newspaper.

Similar to yesterday’s topic, use a large enough container that you have water in, place the airbrush tip and cup down into the liquid, and gently wash airbrush thoroughly. When clean, partially fill cup with clean water and spray into the container to clean the internals. Holding your finger and pulling the trigger will backflush the airbrush as well, to get the instrument thoroughly clean.

Dry airbrush out completely, before loading up with new paint.

Hope these tips in How To Airbrush Better are of help to you!

My good friend, Stuart Vimpani, who is an expert in flames/murals on cars is well worth a visit...head on over...

Cheers!

Clean Your Airbrush Thoroughly !

Hi Friends

A very important subject today, which we may wish to skip at our peril!

Yes, like our bedroom...the airbrush works better if it's clean!

For best results and for the airbrush to function correctly, it must be thoroughly cleansed of old paint.

For oil paints, use lacquer thinners.

Before cleaning, empty any unused paint back into its own container. Spray the remaining paint in the airbrush out onto waste newspaper.

Using a large enough container that you have lacquer thinners in, place the airbrush tip and cup down into the liquid, and gently wash airbrush thoroughly. When clean, partially fill cup with clean thinners and spray into the container to clean the internals.

The cleaning thinners can be used several times until it becomes too dirty for further cleaning duties.

With the environment in mind, please dispose of the cleanup and waste materials according to your local bylaws.

Tomorrow we will look at acrylic paint cleansing.

How To Airbrush Better will help you to enjoy your artwork!

Nothing to do with Airbrushing or has it?

Hi Folk...I happened across the following in another blog, and was stunned by the sheer speed of mental agility that Leyan Lo must have to solve the Rubik's Cube.

(Credit: Daniel Terdiman/CNET News.com)

Editors’ note: This blog initially misspelled the name of a record holder for solving a Rubik’s Cube. He is Leyan Lo.

Clearly, I’ve been doing something wrong.

Since the early 1980s, when I got my first Rubik’s Cube, I’ve never been able to solve it. Oh, sure, I got one side done, and maybe even two. Or, I could break the thing open and put it back together in its original, solved position.

But now, according to the BBC, a supercomputer has determined that a Rubik’s Cube is solvable in less than 26 moves, regardless of the starting position. So, boy, don’t I feel dumb?

It turns out, thanks to research done by Northeastern University graduate students Daniel Kunkle and Gene Cooperman that that’s all it takes to solve one of the famous toys. Duh.

Yet, I wonder: Could the computer that proved this beat the likes of Leyan Lo, who early last year set the world’s record of 11.13 seconds? I sort of doubt it.

After all, have you ever seen a supercomputer try to turn a Rubik’s Cube?

I tried some years ago and couldn't solve it in under 8 hours, let alone 11.13 seconds...astounding!!

Clearly, it's back to airbrushing for me!
