Hi Jakko
Nice to see this with some paint. Looks good.

Water with a splash from a bottle of ultrasonic cleaner fluid I bought a few years ago. Not sure what’s in it, exactly, as I don’t have the bottle here with me in the living room, but IIRC it’s fairly high-pHWhat fluid did you use in the ultrasonic Jakko?
This one hadn’t had a bath at all since I bought it, so I think you’re rightI reckon even the best maintained airbrush will need a good strip down and clean every now and then.
It does seem to be powerful stuff: http://dr-h-stamm.info/downloads/rw7783029gbenstamm.pdfIt’s also only for professional use … so I guess I should put it away and never touch it again
That’s my take on it, too. I take the cap off, pour a small amount into the ultrasonic cleaner, and put the cap back on before filling the rest of the cleaner’s tank with tap water. I’m not scared I will get chemical burns or anything from it, especially not with a solution as diluted as that.Most material safety data sheets are pretty scary though, I'm sure it's fine if you're sensible with it.
Good to see you back at it and something different from the 'usual'.
There’s a safety saying for that Jakko…..”Always do what you oughter, add the acid to the water…..”.That’s my take on it, too. I take the cap off, pour a small amount into the ultrasonic cleaner, and put the cap back on before filling the rest of the cleaner’s tank with tap water. I’m not scared I will get chemical burns or anything from it, especially not with a solution as diluted as that.
You may be slightly disappointed with the next one, then, which I’ll get right on to once I’ve finished his and/or the M4A2 …
I'm never bored by your builds... The amount of work you put into them always makes them interesting!That’s my take on it, too.

Chances are I was taught this when I studied chemical engineering about 30 years ago, but if I was then I don’t remember In any case, with the amounts etc. we’re talking about here, I’m not exactly concerned.”Always do what you oughter, add the acid to the water…..”.
