Airbrush Trouble
Shooting
"Break that tip off did
you?"
Well don't feel alone anyone who has used
an airbrush with a screw in tip (picture #1) for any length of time has most
likely done the same thing. It's very easy to do when replacing a screw in tip
or nozzle using the little wrench the airbrush company provides with the
airbrush. Over tighten it just a little and it will break the tip or nozzle off
leaving the threads inside the airbrush body.(picture #2) The easiest way I
have found to fix this is to use the tip of your X acto knife (picture #3); by
carefully inserting it into where those threads remain in the airbrush body and
turning the X acto knife just like you would the tip. Left/ to loosen, right /
tighten remember. Do not make matters worse by using alot of force when
inserting the tip of the X acto knife and striping the threads, gently insert
the tip of the X acto. This nine times out of ten will turn that part of the
broken tip/nozzle right out of the airbrush, after which you replace it with a
new tip. Careful this time not to over tighten, breaking it off
again. |
