There was a discussion on /m/ some weeks back that putting water through your airbrush to clean it between paint changes was a bad idea since it could cause the paint to spider or bubble (I forget which one exactly). So is this video wrong in telling you to use water to help clean the paint?

Additionally, I've seen a few videos that give recipes for homemade acrylic thinner and airbrush cleaner, they're all variations to some degree or other on this formula (ingredients in description). Has anyone tried either of these and can vouch for them?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYpUR6q48vMI'm finally getting ready to order paints for my airbrush in the next day or so (going with Gaianotes for lacquer and Vallejo for acrylic), and I want to make sure that I fuck up as little as possible. Also, knowing whether or not those two homemade concoctions in the second video work will let me order them ahead of time and get less assfucked by shipping costs.
