That’s really cool. I work at a archery business where I use these every day for detailing deer heads. For instance the white colored neck and inside of the ears, black bordering for the ears, black for the eyes surrounded by white. And plenty of other different animals I never knew u could take off all of these parts. I would typically use lacquer thinner to clean them. I’ll have to show my work buddies tomorrow since fridays are our cleaning days. Thanks alot
Paasche H is the airbrush for me! I've tried the pricier double action airbrushes, and even some very expensive models, but I always go back to the simple & sweet Paasche H.
I have had my Paasche H for over twenty five years (possibly even longer) and it's never let me down. Like the earlier post my model does not have the Teflon ring! Thanks for the tutorial. Tony
I don’t know if I’m wrong but the O riña and the teflon part can be threaded inside the nozzle, at least that’s how it came when I bought it. The O ring has a a notch on one side that can be used with a screwdrive
Yes, the ptfe o-ring, goes threaded into the nozzle, there is a retainer that gets the o-ring in place, and the retainer must be threaded softly, enough to seal the nozzle an the needle. Also its not recomended to sand the needle, because the dimensions will change ant the airbrush will need more adjustments frequently, its enough to clean the needle and nozzle with thinner, acrylic, laquer thinner or IPA, depending the paint you used..
The teflon packing can wear out over time (Usually a LONG time). Once you get it and the nut installed, you adjust the nut so the packing grabs the needle, but not too hard. This gives the seal you need for good paint flow and atomization. If the needle moves easily with the nut tightened down all the way, or you get sputtering with the packing tightened, it's time to replace the teflon.
Enjoyed the ease of cleaning the H but after a while noticed how rough the atomisation was when compared to an internal mix. Now using a paasche Talon with the 3 head set.
I keep hearing this, but don't get why people are having a problem. I lay down Stynylrez primer right out of the bottle with the H and get a perfectly smooth layer. For heavier more viscous paints, it's the go to over my double action.
@@ScaleModelKitReviewmissed your comment. These days the talon is only used with largest needle and fan cap for larger models. Using a 0.5mm patriot and 0.2mm ps270 as my main guns.
The brass ring and rubber washer goes INSIDE the needle nozzle, not on the needle. If you look at the brass ring, it has a slot through it where you can place a screwdriver to tighten it inside the nozzle.
I recently received a very old and unused airbrush, and it has paint caked into the round part of the airbrush where the needle attaches, how should I clean it?
You will need to disassemble the airbrush and soak the metal parts in a stronger solution such as lacquer thinner or Acetone, then I would recommend you replace any defective or worn parts.
Can the nut get stuck in the housing took mine apart and mine didn’t have it can you be because it hasn’t got cleaning so long that I got stuck in the housing because I looked in there and I see something gold Asking because a friend gave it to me the other day
Your correct the nut should have the screwdriver slots facing out to be able to remove and replace the packing, I believe I replaced the whole needle valve assembly which comes with the new packing and nut.
No the VS and VL brushes are different in construction, but a new airbrush purchase will contain the manual on how to clean the airbrush. I have a VL and I might do a video for it. Thanks for watching and commenting.
My paasche h won't spray liquid not even water the air comes out fine but no liquid my needle and tip are clean and so is my cup any clue what the problem could be
I agree complety. I'm done with it. I hate this airbrush and I am on the verge of throwing it in the garbage or smashing with a hammer. It's great if you want to airbrush rubbing alcohol, but nothing else flows through it. I'm going back to the crappy aztek that worked for years.
I've never had one of those teflon rings on the needle like the one in this video. Seems to work fine without it. Always neat to see how different people do things but if I were cleaning up this airbrush, I would just let it soak in dried paint solvent for a while, then disassemble. That way, I wouldn't have to scratch it up with sandpaper.
Not sure way the ring and the nut are on the needle; I have 2 H set and the nut and ring are assembly in the nozzle; I believe yours works fine because the ring is doing its job inside the nozzle

You're most welcome!
After weeks of confusing info shopping airbrush guns, simple gets it done. I just ordered a new one, thanks for the info.

Nice cleaning tutorial. Thanks for sharing

Helpful! Thanks for posting!
Glad it was helpful!
I just got 1. Haven’t used it yet. But looking forward to it.
Just realized it’s missing the Allen set screw.
Thanks for watching.
I hope this video helped.

Thanks for sharing. Do you like the Talon? I gave my Talon to my wife for her crafting.

@@swdw973 depends on the paint. Stynylrez self levels.

Great brush! The workhorse of air-brushes, Great video man!!

Yes I know about this from previous comments, thanks for watching.
@@ScaleModelKitReview Sorry, didn't read that far back. Your video was very useful. I learned a good cleaning technique nonetheless!
They date back to the 1920's ... I'm retired but I used to do tech info for them...
Thanks for the info.
Is this the best. A lot of people say badger is better. I have a master and it sucks. The paint has to be almost water to flow thru the brush
These are unique airbrushes and different in how you clean them. Thanks for watching.

Scale Model Kit Review Thank you!
does not having that nut or seal that was in with the needle matter? i bought mine used and it didnt have either of those.
Those parts are important, you can find many of these on Ebay for spare parts.
I bought a paasche h series on amazon I don't have a compressor yet just asking, is it a good brush?
Yes it is.
Can the nut get stuck in the housing took mine apart and mine didn’t have it can you be because it hasn’t got cleaning so long that I got stuck in the housing because I looked in there and I see something gold Asking because a friend gave it to me the other day

Scale Model Kit Review Thank you Steve
The packing nut and seal go into the piece that screws onto the needle.
Yes Thank you.
Super helpful, ty!!!
Glad it was helpful!
I love this brush!!!
Thanks for watching.
is it still good for models? in 2017? H VS VL?
No the VS and VL brushes are different in construction, but a new airbrush purchase will contain the manual on how to clean the airbrush. I have a VL and I might do a video for it. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Its hard to tell, I would have to see it in person.

3minutes of informative info crammed into 10:14
I waffle a bit!!
Great vid
Thank you.
I went onto webairbrushes.com and found no cleaning kit like the one you have.
You can find it here CMK-0116 Complete Airbrush Maintenance Kit : webairbrushes.com/accessories.htm
Mine is 50 years old. You can tell how old this one is because newer ones don't have the stop on the top.
Mine is identical and I have had it since 1969.
Thats awesome. Thanks for watching.
Dude why you have everything Badger.. in a Paasche airbrush tutorial/review? lol
