Airbrush Cleaning Pot

Hi all!

 

I was wondering if anyone here uses this cleaning pot? or something similar?

 

I had bought one but, never used it. Ive always wondered do you fill it up with some thinner first? Box says water, but since I use a lot of enamels doesnt make sense (water and white spirit based oil paints dont mix).

Also if i use it for spraying acrylic AND enamels.. (one is water based and the other is white spirit based).. there is going to be a big mess of oil bubbles and water in the end.

 

Was thinking of having one for enamels/laquer and another for acrylic.

Yup, you are thinking correctly, you need to have two, one for each type of paint. I would suggest you use cellulose thinners for your enamels then you can also clean out your airbrush if you should use Tamiya 'acrylics' as they are neither one thing or the other, but react best with a spirit based cleaner.
