Any thoughts on whether a product like this is good for cleaning an airbrush? Aim and Binaca make some smaller ones that look similar too.

Dave,My only consern would be that if you used a solvent based cleaner like enamel reducer or lacquer thinner they would dissolve.Jeff

I use used dryer sheets to clean my brush. They're made of glass fibre so they're slightly abrasive and tough. They do a good job.

I use these, no issue, even with lacquer thinners.
