Medea Airbrush Cleaner — 4 oz Ready-to-Use Artist Cleaner

Medea Airbrush Cleaner — 4 oz Ready-to-Use Artist Cleaner

Product description

This product is supplied as a ready-to-use cleaning liquid in a sealed bottle; no diluting or mixing is required. It’s intended for routine maintenance and deeper maintenance of airbrushes and painting tools.

The formula is designed to break down water-based paints, acrylics, oil-based paints, inks, dyes, watercolors and gouache. It works on residues in cups, needles, tips and internal passages, and is safe for both synthetic and natural-haired paint brushes.

Use it to flush your airbrush between color changes, to rinse out cups and passages at the end of a session, or to soak disassembled parts for several minutes to loosen dried pigment. For brushes, work the solution through bristles to release trapped paint and restore shape.

Available sizes include small 4 oz bottles for trial or light use, mid-size 16 oz bottles for regular hobbyists, and larger 32 oz containers for studios or frequent use. Bottles typically feature a pour-friendly closure to control flow during cleaning and soaking.

Pros

  • Effective across acrylic, oil and water-based media
  • Ready-to-use — no mixing needed
  • Safe for airbrush internals and both brush types

Cons

  • Smaller bottles can require frequent replacement for heavy users
  • Cap design could be improved for more precise dispensing
  • Not intended for skin or surface use without care

VerdictA versatile, ready-formula cleaner that tackles acrylics, oils, inks and water-based media. It works across airbrush makes and brush types, letting you flush between colors, perform end-of-session rinses and soak components for deep cleaning. Most users find it effective without attacking tool finishes; larger bottles offer longer life for frequent users. While some competitors exist, this option

    Essential for anyone who works with airbrushes or inks

    This cleaner has become a go-to in my kit. It reliably removes stubborn pigments and dried acrylic without harming needles or seals. It’s useful for quick color changes and for soaking parts, and it revived a brush I thought was ruined.

    Produit de nettoyage efficace

    Bon produit pour l'aérographe, s’utilise en petite quantité et reste pratique grâce à son bouchon verseur. Je recommande.
