Thanks for clicking on QuickTech.
Sometimes even an All-Star airbrush like the Eclipse CS can have problems. You might see bubbles in the color cup, a diminished spray pattern or maybe your airbrush won’t spray at all. Luckily nearly all airbrush issues can be resolved with a thorough cleaning session. In this video we show you how to give your Eclipse CS gravity feed airbrush a deep clean that will get you spraying again.
We decided to make a video especially for the Eclipse CS because of its unique compression fit nozzle. It is important to know how to remove and clean this nozzle properly to avoid damaging the part.
You’ll see in the video that we soak the nozzle, nozzle cap, air cap and needle cap in Medea Airbrush Cleaner. This helps break up dried paint and makes it easier to scrub off. But please do not soak, immerse or “wet dock” your entire airbrush in any liquid. Ever. This can cause more problems than it solves.

Before disconnecting your airbrush from the air hose:
1. Make sure your compressor is off.
2. Then hold down the main lever to release any stored air.

** UPDATE **
Iwata Airbrush Cleaning Kit now includes Medea Thread Sealer. Use this to remedy and prevent bubbles in the cup and other issues causes by poor metal to metal connection.
