Air brush arrived today, it was only £8.54 for the airbrush and £5.69 for a large can of air, plus P+P. All from Models in motion, in Stevenage Models in Motion
the Air brush comes with everything you would need apart from air, paint, cleaning stuff (best stuff to use is?) so in my mind for a budget builder is a good buy.

air brush cleaner is good, but usally it best to clean the airbrush out with the thinner for what ever type of paint you have just sprayed through it.

primer "primes" the surface, its a strong wearing, rough paint that creates a perfect finish for your top coat to adhear to. its also good if you have been sanding and filling, spray some primer over the area and you can see if you missed any bits, mucked any bits up as it showes you what it will look like once painted.

Cool, cheers mate, one question is. Do you take cut all the bits off etc and spray them, or spray them as they are?
