yea, that was kind of my point guess i could have been clearer on that.

Cool. If you ever get to Florida check out fantasy if flight in polk they have tons of ww2 planes

keven, a few sites also state the heat setting is needed if the object is to be washed repeatedly such as a drinking glass. it can also be air set for 21 days before use.

Pat first off what attitude I simply asked where you got your info is it personal experience or is there a web site. You are correct top airbrushes do use better paints which also require heat setting for color fastness and bonding but do not believe heat setting is needed between coats regardless of brand. I then only said that cheap craft paints could be used on other surfaces info which I obtained from several web sites including the paint manufacturer. Second I haven't bashed criticized talked down to insulted or ganged up onthe ANYONE on this forum so I have no idea where that came from. I like this forum and wouldn't intentionally do anything to cause another to leave. Even now I fight to keep civil as I was somewhat offended by your insinuation.

Pat you didn't answer my question. Where did you get your info? And by the way those cheep craft paints can also be used on wood with ceramics metal glass etc.

Pat, where did you read that heat setting keeps one color from melting the previous one? heat setting provides color fastness on fabric and bonds it to other surfaces. if what you are saying is true then why don't you ever see top airbrushers heat setting between colors?

good job

bruce what do you mean your motor functions aren't the best? that thing is awesome the trim lines are flawless, paint is perfect, engine spotless. beautyful job, keep it up.

good paint combo, nice job.

flocking looks a little blotchy but the paint looks great.

looks like you made 7 up yours.

very nice. good work.

apple barrel and folk art paints can be used on wood, ceramics, metal, even glass not just t shirts. If you intend to wash the object you are painting yes you do need to set the paint heat set is best but you can also air set by waiting 21 days before sealing.

this is going to be cool.

nice o.t.b. build, I like the reign of fire scene on the trunk

nice looking ride.

looks good. could use a little more detail in the engine bay though.

looks great but if you still don't like it give it to your sister she'll love you for it.

very nice doc. you didn't even scuff the tires, you're slipping.

sorry for your loss. our dogs give us so much and in return ask only for treats ad belly scratches.

here's an article on thinning acrylic paint for gaming miniatures, it's for brushing so I don't know how well it will work for airbrush. http://www.reapermini.com/TheCraft/15
