Good morning:
     Gee.  I discovered that lumpy paint clogs airbrushes.  I really, really, 
really had to put on my thinking cap for that one!  And I am a gen-u-whine 
ed-u-kated per-sun.  <Tongue-in-cheek>  <grin>

I have tried various ways to mix this bottle of paint but the lumps are dried 
paint; not the wonderful colour sludge at the bottom of the bottle.  I know, I 
know.  Discard the bottles and purchase fresh, new bottles for every airbrush 
project.

But discarding stuff rubs my grain the wrong way.  There is nothing wrong with 
this paint if I could filter it first.  I looked at coffee filters and believe 
it to be too fine.  I looked at cheesecloth and decided it was too coarse.  
Mixing for five minutes straight with a Badger paint mixer does wonders but not 
for dried paint.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to filter Polly S so the fine pigment 
gets through but the blobs do not?
