❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use this cleaner daily?
Absolutely! This cleaner is specifically designed for regular use. Many professional artists use it after every session to maintain peak performance.
Will it damage my expensive airbrush?
Not at all! This is the official Iwata-recommended formula. It won't harm seals, metal parts, or protective coatings. Safer than improvised cleaners.
Can I dilute it to make it last longer?
Yes, but carefully. You can dilute with distilled water for light cleaning tasks, but use it neat for best results on stubborn residues.
Does it work on dried, caked-on paint?
Yes indeed! For dried paint, soak parts overnight. The cleaner will break down even stubborn, dried acrylic buildup without scrubbing.

Notes · Q & A
What nozzle size do I need for miniatures?
0.3mm is the versatile all-rounder for base coats and priming; 0.2mm suits fine detail work. Larger nozzles (0.5mm) are for terrain and big surfaces.
Do I need a compressor with a tank?
A tank smooths the airflow and reduces pulsing, giving more consistent results — worth it if you spray regularly, but tankless compressors work fine for occasional use.
How do I keep an airbrush working well?
Flush with airbrush cleaner between colours and strip-clean after each session. Most spraying problems are cleaning problems.
