Paint Preparation
For non-specic airbrush paints, proper preparation, including
ltering the paint through a nylon mesh, is critical for best
performance. Thin paint with its proper solvent, and make
repeated passes across the work to build up the color. This
improves your work’s quality and decreases your airbrush’s
cleaning time.
• Custom Microns spray very thin paint best.
• Thin paint with its proper solvent.
• Filter paint through paint lters or mesh.
Safety Tips
• Always spray in well ventilated areas.
• Do not spray solvent based (ammable) paints around
open ames.
• Use the appropriate respirator to safely lter out paint vapors
particular to your specic paint type.
• Wear eye protection to prevent paint contact with eyes.
• Never exceed the airbrush’s pressure limit. (98 psi)
Crown Cap
The crown cap physically protects the needle while spraying
very ne lines. When spraying larger areas or stippling with the
Custom Micron, we suggest removing the crown cap and
screwing it onto the crown cap dock.
Crown Cap Dock
The Custom Micron 2014 Series comes equipped with a pre-set
handle that includes a crown cap dock. When stippling or for
any reason you have to remove your crown cap, simply screw it
onto the crown cap dock so it doesn’t get lost.
