When saying WTF isn't enough!

Having one of those days lads.....?
Been having airbrush problems, the old bubble....bubble.
Took it apart and cleaned it, then stuck it into boiling water, worked fine, then went and put some AK paint in it and things turned to potty time again!
So went and pulled it all apart and managed to loose the trigger...WTF were did it go!
Anyone else have that kind of drama, or is it just me LOL.....

Start looking for something else and the trigger will pop right up at ya.
Yeah, been having these type days at work lately. 10 more years should do it...

Turned the house upside down.....got me beat.
It would appear that I can't go out and just buy a replacement either ..BIG SIGH.
Guess I will have to get the Sparmax GP 35 going. Don't reckon the wife will let me have the funds to buy another brush.

What AB is missing the trigger?

AK basic line brush, a rather mediocre brush and prone to blocking.
I will get the expensive brush going again, better results.

I just got some spare gaskets and parts for my H & S airbrushes. Been watching Midwest Airbrush Supply and they were always out. Then over last weekend was looking through my cardex file at the Badger entry. At the bottom of the entry was a supplier that I had not looked at in several years, Coast Airbrush. They are located in California (go figure) Anyway they had the spare parts gaskets that I have been wanting to get, so ordered them along with some parts like the cup caps that didn't come with the airbrushes, a 0.6 needle/nozzle set. Yeah, wasn't cheap, but have the parts now so all is good.

don't know where your trigger is, hope it turns up.
dont know wich ak paint you use but
if you used AK Real Colors they cannot be thinned or mixed with water. Using water will cause them to turn into unusable "goop"
so that could be the problem and some water was still left in the gun.

Sadly it would appear that one just can't go and buy a replacement trigger. It was okay as long as you didn't expect much, was waiting till the minister of finance said I could get the replacements for the Sparmax, so will order that and a 1/48 scale KA 27 Helix...

Yeah that was the problem, I had been pulling mt hair out over the grey/green for my hind and found it in the "real colours", just got the brush back from going bubble, bubble ( boiled hot water, certainly did the trick) and went and put the "gloop" in it ( the air went a vivid blue around me) so took the brush to pieces and cleaned it again in boiling water, but can't find where I put the damn trigger! So how do you thin real colours?
