Default Proper Solvent for Cleaning a Paint Gun

My brother's gun has a little enamel paint dried within it. Don't think paint thinner is strong enough to break it up. How do you thoroughly clean a gun in this condition?

It works now, I think when I happened to look last time the site must have been temporarily down.

LAQUER THINNER. Clean the tip, loosen the cap, work the trigger to percolate, dump out the laquer thinner. Fill it back up, spray some out. (For a quick clean up)
