I used the spectrum flow white to create a blue pastel and it worked beautifully. I swapped out my needle/nozzle tip size to .5 and increased the air pressure a bit. That made a world of difference.  I was able to easily clean the airbrush too.  Don't know if the increase in air pressure made any difference in cleaning  the gun but I'm happy with the result.  Thank you so very much,  Julia 😊😊😊

It (the increased pressure) probably did help. Do you also suffocate the airflow and backflush into the chamber to clean it out? If not, I find this is one of the most effective ways to clean, and you might want to try it.

Yes! I really think the increased pressure was a big help...can't believe I hadn't "played" around with that more with the white color...Ugh!  Backflushing is a big part of my cleaning regime  .

I can't imagine where you "find" the time to interact with me like this my dear cookie friend. I appreciate your personal touch more than you know and believe this is one of the things that truly sets you apart from so many others ❤️. As I mentioned to Tina on my FB page, your unique qualities of kindness, generosity and genuine caring for others speaks volumes of the lovely person you are on the inside as well as the outside!!

Thank you once again...be well!!
