Bullitt Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 I have a nice Wicked Red airbrush paint I would like to put on a '58 vette I am building. Question is, does this paint need to be thinned before use, and if so, with what. Wicked says to use Wicked thinner, but I am no where near anybody that sells it. Thanks
my80malibu Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 I have used wicked color's both thinned and straight from the bottle. I prefer straight from the bottle, sometimes I tend to over think the paint leading to a runny situation. You can compensate some for it, it just takes a little getting used too.Try applying at about 15-18 psi, open the needle up some,and test on some plastic spoons.
Jhedir6 Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 I've tried it a couple time with my old airbrush which had a .35mm needle and I had trouble spraying it straight from the bottle, even thinned I had issues with clogging, didnt thin it enough. I've got a new airbrush now, but have yet to try it with the new one. I've got a bunch of colours I'd like to use but havent taken the time to try them lately. Let us know how you make out and what you find works.
