[WWI] airbrush

[Aidrian Bridgeman-Sutton]

Acrylics is funny...some like some thinners some like others.  For Tamiya
and Gunze a 50/50 mix of water and either clear meths or isopropyl alchohol
works.

I  also use "Liquitex Airbrush Medium" when working with acrylics  - you
shoudl be able to buy this at most decent art supply shops

Use window cleaner (Windex or whatever)  for intermediate cleans and
cellulose lacquer thinners for a full clean; some people use the window
cleaner as a thinner
