Airbrush advice

I’ve noticed a lot of complaints about “spitting” airbruhes. Here are 2 rules to help ameliorate this pain:
1-Always start spaying away from your workpiece-a piece of scrap cardboard in between the model and airbrush works great. Eliminates those start-up spits.
2-Keep a soft sable brush handy to periodically wipe the tip as you work-paint usually builds up on anything but the perfect needle.

Remember keep it clean, clean, clean!

what about if you have to make closed loops within the fusalege, wings?

I have found a great way to keep the tip of my Badger 150 clean is to keep a Q-tip dipped in solvent handy to wipe out excess paint during airbrushing.

That’s good advice.
Don’t these posts belong in the 'Painting and Airbrushing forum though? [:D][;)]
