Precisely. You use so little Tamiya thinner to airbrush the paint, why cheap out when the original thinner works so well? Considering how many people have paint problems, you'd think that they'd learn by now not to scrimp.

Cleaning the airbrush is another story. Use Windex or cheap cleanup lacquer thinner. But Tamiya thinner is by far the best choice to thin their paints, especially their gloss paints.
