Picked up a spaz stix mirror chrome bottle. What should I use to clean the brush with non-waterbased paints?

Get it at home depot/menards?

But don't soak the body for long times or thinner will affect seals in the body. Flush it with Createx cleaner after thinner.

No long time thinner soaks on anything with rubber seals.
You can get Createx cleaner at Hobby Lobby, Michaels, HobbyTown, etc.

ii have had good luck just swiching sum rubbing alcohol around to get it out and then wiping whatever i can out with a rag, its always good to have some paint thinner around tho incase it dries
The General Paint Thread - Obsessive R/C - 12-17-2006
You can always use Createx "airbrush restorer"....this is designed to dissolve waterbased and solvent based paint but is fairly gentle on the rubber components...you still have to flush it out after soaking, or it will eventually eat the seals.
