Thanks lonewolf, i will be trying it out in about an hour. Thanks for the help

if you doing mulitple coats, how long should one wait in between coats

thansk to all of you guys for the great advice. i see i have lot of testing to do. Good thing i have a a lot of paint............ Can any enamel paint be used to paint model cars, as long as the thinning is done correctly. the sores around me only have testors or model master.

Randall, thank you for that breakdown..... i was wondering if their was a difference between paint thinner, lacquer thinner, mineral spirits, airbrush thinner, or paint thatsimply states on the label already reduced. all this confusing.

MCM Ohana, what does 2:1 thinner/paint ratio mean exactly?

And i'm guessing enamels are the way to go? i get so comfused with the mixxing ratio......

Hello to everyone. I am very new to airbrushing, I am no atist by any means. I have been putting model cars together for about 4 months now, and never used an airbrush gun. I recently bought two guns --- a Paasche VL and a Badger 350, and was also given a Matco 150-IL....... However I have no idea if these guns are for a more experienced artist, and if these are mainly for detail, but this is what i am trying to accomplish....... i just want to paint the outside shell of a model car, and have it look good. I hand brush all the smaill detail parts for the time beng. I use the basic Testors and model master paint, all acrylic. i'm not trying to get fancy just yet with two tones, or anything detailed just yet, just one color. Can someone receommend which one of three airbrush guns I have listed above is the best to work with with as I learn, or maybe i should buy a 4th one. Any and all advice would be very helpful.
