Default Problems with Fastrax Airbrush paint

Just got some Fastrax airbrush paint from CML,

Used a yellow in the airbrush and washed the airbrush out with water to use another color, straight away the paint cloged up inside the airbrush.

Am I doing something wrong?

Used some FasKolor ones last week and they were fine using the above method!

Any ideas guys?

Thanks for the info.

Think I will just stick to the water based paints from now on.
