Sorry, I didn't see this, I'm one of those that needs a "quote post" so I can see in the notifications if there is a reply...\ said:Thank you for the warm welcome and kind responses!
So I do happen to have a full-sized compressor, can you elaborate a bit on what you mean by a "baby spray gun"? I know I can find things like automotive spray guns pretty inexpensively over here. If it'd do a better job than rattle cans I may invest.
I'm also curious what types of paint I can use in these guns. I bought a starter pack of Testers airgun paints, but I'm going to want a bit more variety in color. My local craft shop has a wide variety of standard Testers-brand colors but I don't know if I can put them in a gun.

I have been using Cellulose thinners through mine and its ok. Does yours have the triple seal? I think they are Nylon? what happened to the brush? did it stop drawing paint or something?\ said:I used Tamiya Synthetic resin from spray cans and got a very good mirror finish. Howevere, I also used it in my airbrush for incurved areas where the fierce spray of a rattle can tende to overload the model. Although I cleaned the airbrush very very thoroughly, the nozzle blocked in later use and I had to replace it. Even reaming did not clear it.
I concluded from that cellulose thinners (the solvent) didn't like my AB,although it is a Harder and Steinbeck of good quality.
Air came out but the paint was too thick in the nozzle but normal in the bottle (Vallejo Model Air). I got worms. I reamed the nozzle - no help. My AB is by Harder and Steenbeck, CR Plus, 0.4 mm nozzle. I think it has good quality seals but I don't know about triple seals.\ said:I have been using Cellulose thinners through mine and its ok.

that's strange. I used a 0.2 nozzle with model air but it does need thinning at that nozzle size. id stick with proper brand thinners and maybe use the cellulose if you need deep cleaning?\ said:Air came out but the paint was too thick in the nozzle but normal in the bottle (Vallejo Model Air).
