Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi

1. Preparing Paint

• Shake paint bottles thoroughly before use to ensure proper pigment mixing.
• Pour a small amount of paint into the airbrush's gravity feed cup. Do not overfill.
• If paint appears too thick, thin it with an appropriate airbrush reducer (not included) according to the paint manufacturer's recommendations.

2. Tħaddim tal-Kompressur

• Turn on the Iwata Smart Jet compressor. The compressor features an auto-shut-off function, meaning it will only run when air is being drawn through the airbrush, helping to prolong its lifespan and reduce noise.
• The Smart Jet compressor provides a consistent working pressure suitable for most airbrushing tasks. No manual pressure adjustment is typically required.

3. Airbrushing Technique

• Dual-Action Control: The Eclipse HP-CS is a dual-action airbrush. Pressing the trigger down releases air. Pulling the trigger back controls the amount of paint released.
• Prattika: Before working on your final project, practice on scrap material to get accustomed to the airbrush's feel and paint flow.
• Distance and Speed: Adjust the distance between the airbrush and the surface, and your hand speed, to achieve desired effects. Closer and slower for fine lines, further and faster for broader coverage.
• Trigger Control: Always release the paint (pull back) after releasing the air (push down), and stop paint (push forward) before stopping air (release up). This prevents paint from drying on the needle tip.

Manutenzjoni

2. Thorough Cleaning After Each Use

• Perform the "cleaning during use" steps.
• Carefully disassemble the airbrush components (needle, nozzle, cap). Refer to your airbrush's specific diagram for disassembly.
• Clean all components with Medea Airbrush Cleaner and appropriate cleaning brushes. Pay close attention to the nozzle and needle, ensuring no paint residue remains.
• Rinse components with water and allow them to dry completely.
• Reassemble the airbrush. Be gentle when inserting the needle to avoid bending the tip.
