Airbrush maintenance is something we see discussed on this site pretty regularly. Precision made tools, with moving parts, subjected to various fluids and continual dismantling and reassembly, they are always expected to perform perfectly. The Airbrush Company in the UK have sent us details of Iwata’s solution to this area of concern, with the launch of their Professional Airbrush Maintenance Tool Kit.

Thanks!

I look forward to ordering a set, if the price in US dollars is fair. I have learned that precision tools are important in maintaining machinery without damaging it.

Looks like it is running around $84.95.

The needle packing screw drivers look to be the most useful. I have a small precisions screw driver that I use, but it is pretty fiddly. I like the way the tool aligns the needle packing, since getting it lined up with the threads deep inside the body of the airbrush can be tricky. An added bonus is the ability to test the friction on the needle with the tool, rather than by trial and error having to slide the actual needle in and out and making repeated little adjustments to get that right.
