[WWI] airbrush

[John Huggins]

I was told a long time ago by a gentleman from the Corrosion Control  
(paint shop) division to never use any thing but the thinner that the  
manufacturer provided for their paints.  It is chemically matched to  
the paint.  You can use anything that is cheap for clean up.  I have  
followed that rule of thumb for many years now, and it does seam to  
work very well.

There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."
