Whenever I use this on my airbrush I get this smoke that comes out... has anyone else had this problem?

Are you sure that’s it’s smoke and not bubble?

Will this clean lacquer paints too?

On the bottle there's no mention of using it to clean lacquer paint. for what I've read is that most lacquer thinner will do the job well just fill the reservoir a couple times and run it through and that should clean your air brush, lacquer paint dry quickly and hard .they're tough on the tip of your airbrush needle so you may have to take it apart and clean the needle if running through doesn't work

What types of paint will this work on? Enamels and/or lacquers, or just acrylics?

I was not sure myself so I checked online with Iwata. According to the Iwata web sites, Iwata-Medea Airbrush Cleaner is good only for acrylics and other water based paints, inks and dyes. For enamels and lacquers they recommend lacquer thinner or acetone. This is what airbrush painters have been using for ever and is what works. Regular paint thinner is usually not strong enough if the solvent based paint has had any chance to dry. The Iwata-Medea Airbrush Cleaner does work well though with acrylics. Lacquer thinner or acetone are hazardous so don't forget breathing and skin protection, also recommend using one of the cleaning jars.
