Normally something nonflammable like soapy water is what you are supposed to use. However, for tough dried paint, get a small baby food jar and place your parts in the jar. Fill the jar with lacquer thinner and set the jar into the soapy water in the cleaner. Run it through a couple of cycles and your parts will be free of paint. I talked to the people at Iwata and they said not to use ammonia products on the airbrush. It will damage the finish over time. Some people use ammonia based products like Windex and some don’t. Your milage may very.
Have bought a ultrasonic cleaner. Will post about it later.
Simple Green brand HD Pro. It’s supposedly even safe for aluminum.
It’s a concentrate so lots of use out of one bottle. You can save money by buying only the gallon refill without the spray bottle.
