Peter I have had an Aztec airbrush for a number of years now. I obtained mine when they first came out. I have successfully sprayed Humbrol using both turps...
Peter, I have an Aztec and have no problems with it since I got my own methods sorted out. Cleanliness is essential, as is correctly strained and mixed paint....
