Anyone using an ultrasonic cleaner to clean airbrush parts?

I don't know if this would be really slick or really useless.

Anyone tried this yet?

Next to useless. My mom gave me one of these, labeled as an ultrasonic jewelry cleaner she bought in the 1970s.

The basket *is* useful. The rest, not so much.

I've used them to clean airbrushes and its ok - Not very good if the brushes are really filthy - it won't remove dried paint. They are only designed to move loose dirt - not stuck on dirt (paint) That’s why the work so well for jewellery - and glasses - they do a great job on my glasses.

They're great so long as you use the right kind of cleaning fluid. I know of somebody who dropped his a/b into his cleaner forgetting it had a much more active jewelry cleaning solution in it... stripped the chrome right off.

So yes, it'll clean it better than new if you use the right fluid.
