pricey, can't find mine, last time I had sticking with the air part of the iwata it solved the problem...and I can't remember where I put the bottle.....do you guy use the lube from iwata or badger or do you use something different:wall:

"Super Lube" Synthetic Grease. In the pic it is the tube on the left.


You can buy it at most hardware stores. It's vaseline like and will not contaminate your paints.
After cleaning my brushes I put a thin coat on the needles and also the air control valve assembly.
Remember go thin.

Great product!!

Eddie I have some of the iwata madea stuff if you need I can swing by and drop it off. Let me know... stop dunking your brush in water and you wont have that problem... :rotf2:

If you stroke the airbrush long enough it will lube itself.:fishslap:

Youre going to go blind that way eddie, just shoot some windex through it, into a bucket, away from you, in a well ventilated area. That'll clean that thing up quick quick. But try not to breath that stuff in..
