Default Re: Airbrushing...?

I don't know why you don't get a touch up paint gun, a gravity feed there cheaper than that Paasche VL and they do a excellent job and you are not all day doing it. Go to a auto paint store and get some small mixing cups with the measure on the sides then you can mix according to the MFG specs. I use automotive acrylic paints with a hardener in it. I just pick the paint and get what I need to mix it it all on the can or ask the person behind the counter they will help you out. You only need a pint of paint, hardener and some thinner. On the thinner ask the person at the counter what thinner to use because it all depends on the temp you are going to paint in and humidity and drying time. If you go to Tower Hobbies they have model paint guns and air brushes. Ed
