Cleaning.—By unscrewing union nut (5) the complete fore-part may be removed for cleaning without interfering with any other part of the mechanism, therefore the operation of cleaning is always quick and thorough, even when sticky, heavy liquids have been used.
The movement for the above sprayer applies to all "Invincible" sprayers. Type "A" for artists, miniature tinting, black and white process work, etc. Type "B" for Christmas and show card work, etc. Type "C" for ceramic work, posters and so on.
A cheaper series is also made which, whilst lacking some of the refinements of the standard models, are reliable, and soundly made instruments.
The patentees and manufacturers of "Invincible" Air Brushes are the Air Brush Manufacturing Co., Ltd., Pneumatic Works, 13, Arlington Street, Rosebery Avenue, London, E.C., who also provide all accessories for complete spraying installation, such as air-compressors, air-receivers, air valves, reducing valves, condensers and clarifiers, pressure paint pots and paint pot stands, exhaust benches, fans, turn-tables, automatic cut-outs, motors, etc., of which complete details will be sent upon request.

From what has already been said, it will be obvious that the most important part of a spraying plant is the correct construction of the actual sprayer or spraying pistol. The Midland Fan Co., Ltd., of 46, Aston Road, Birmingham, have placed on the market a sprayer which is shown in Fig. 65, and this, we learn, has given a great deal of satisfaction. Its principal claim to superiority is the simplicity of construction, for one reason because the sprayer may be used by those who have but little knowledge of mechanics. The construction permits of easy cleaning, which is of vital importance, and for this purpose the needle can be removed by a turn of the fingers and replaced with equal ease. The illustration shows the larger pistol, and it may be mentioned that smaller sizes are made for finer work.
