    What Am I Doing Wrong?

    if its fresh paint you can soak it in 99% isopropyl alcohol to start with 10 minuets. remove and with a old tooth brush start scrubbing, rinse under warm water. you may not see much different at this time. rinse,dry and re-pete for 5-10 minuets..keep doing this if the paint is fresh it will come off less than a hr...(want work on older paint jobs and do not leave in alcohol over 10 minuets at a time)...it will feel a little sticky but no worries once it air dries all will be good..i have did this on resin builds before with no problem..or break out the EZ Off Yellow Can spray it down wait 4 hrs scrub off under warm water re-pet if needed..

    1/4" NPT to Badger airbrush threads?

    I noticed that most of the threads associated with airbrushes seem to be 1/8" BSP, but mine is M5 x 0.5 thread. So I'm assuming that standard adaptor is for the 1/8" BSP. I took a chance and ordered this from Amazon- Amazon.com: Professional 7pcs Airbrush Adaptor Kit Fitting Connector Set for Air Compressor & Airbrush Hose : Arts, Crafts & Sewing

    It looks like this kit has the 1/4" NPT to both M5 and 1/8 threads, and it appears to also have an adaptor to go from my M5 threads to the 1/8 hose if I wanted to switch to that. The only M5 hose I can seem to find is the cheap vinyl kind. The 1/8 hoses seem much nicer as they are available as braided.

    I'll let you guys know if that kit does the trick, maybe that will help someone else out in the future.

    the one on the bottom right will hook up to the Badger 350 hose.. i got one from back in the 80's. i only painted one model with it. first airbrush i ever bought..
