I use turpentine to thin Humbrol enamels.
The Humbrol thinner is only necessary for airbrushing, for anything else turpentine works great.
odourless turpentine is even better.
much cheaper.
cheers for the help guys.
last night I spent hours inspecting and testing the brush with water and I found the solution the nozzle wasn't centred in the nozzle cap so the splattering was from un balanced air coming from one side of the nozzle cap hole, turns out to fix the problem I had to slightly loosen the nozzle so it would centre and spray clean balanced content.
I mainly use Tamiya acrylic
Then Vallejo air
and sometimes Humbrol enamel
Hello modellers I have been using an airbrush for about 3 months now and I am loving the experience.
BUT, recently I have had some trouble with it (splattering and such) it has worked (for me) very well in the past but I am looking at purchasing a better quality airbrush that ins't overly expensive but still decent quality. (so maybe not H&S, Iwata, etc)
Any recommendations?
P . S I use windex and various other products that contain ammonia.
Great model, I am currently making this same kit, certainly pinching lots off yours. I was also wondering how you made or where you got the seat-belts?
