It all stims from my HS Evolution air brush. I've had problems with it since I got it. Too much pressure and spitting paint. I was talking to Dale about it today and I called my supplier and spoke to them. Seems I had never taken the shipping cap of!!
The cylender is the head with shipping cap on. I didn't know it was the shipping cap. took a couple sets of plyers to separate.
Causes quite a mess.
With the correct head on. Now we can try this $300 airbrush (well $308 but let's not quibble)

Yeah I know right! But it didn't come with one
Mine did a little spit yesterday too....stripped it twice, cleaned it out, but ran out of time to try again, maybe tomorrow, pain when things don't quite go to plan...

Okay, so I figure most all of you here know how to do this and most would prefer not to but here it is for those who may not know.
If you have a really screwed up paint or say you bought a kit that came chrome plated and you want to strip it. go to you local store and find the cheapest brake fluid you can find. Get a tube and place the kit or parts in and pour on the brake fluid. Let set a few hours and use a tooth brush to scrub it off. I left this in a few days and the wings came off so don't leave it too long normally 1 day or less (four hours should do most)
take the kit or parts and give a good soaking.
properly dispose of the fluid!

Nicely done so far!

I did find a manual and it doesn't discuss the shipping cap anywhere. So anyway it works fine now.
So pulled it out of its dishwasher bath.
Hmmm looks like a plane wreck
You could do a diorama now.....

I let it soak too long and it disassembled a bit to much
