Lube it up for smooth strokes!

When a smooth running airbrush is the goal, a little lubrication in the right places will get you there. Airbrush lubricant is specially designed to minimize friction and keep all those moving parts gliding effortlessly. When you use it correctly, you'll notice better trigger response and fewer headaches with tip dry. 

Strategic application is key: 1) Just a tiny bit on the needle tip works wonders to keep paint from drying up. 2) A light coating where the needle passes through the packing (or setting screw) promotes smooth back-and-forth motion. 3) A small amount down the air valve button ensures consistent, responsive up-down trigger action. With proper use, airbrush lubricant becomes a simple yet essential step in keeping your airbrush running reliably and efficiently. And remember: "A dab will do ya!" Only a minimal amount is needed to achieve optimal performance.
