If your Airbrush continues to 'pass air' when your finger is not on the trigger, the issue you have is known as a ‘sticky trigger’. This is easily solved by cleaning the requisite part of the Airbrush.
To Clean: Strip down airbrush and drop 3-4 drops of Airbase Thinner and Cleaner or pure alcohol into the piston area.
Reassemble your Airbrush.
When reassembled, depress and lift the trigger to create movement in the piston and work the solution into the ‘sticky’ area.
If necessary, remove Piston (Part 5) and clean area and part thoroughly.
