These look nice, but I doubt they are/will be available here in the Philippines. Too bad, I would have liked to try them out. They do give me ideas on how to make my own, plus they give me confidence to go with a lower grit paper than my current supply of 1200,1500 & 2000 grit wet/dry paper. I have some double sided foam tape that I planned to use in making my own sanding sticks, creativity in the Philippines goes beyond the kit.
Hi Stalker
We ship via tracked courier worldwide, even the Philippines! We have many happy customers there already.
We currently have three Australian retailers that you can purchase from and soon, will have a Japanese retailer too. These are all in your neck of the woods....lol

Hah! I'm an idiot, it was Vallejo primer that wasn't doing it for me! Maybe I should try Ultimate, then.. The thinners and cleaner are pretty good.

I bought some about a year ago, only tried it once, didn't work that great at the time, but that could have been my old airbrush
Curious to know what is the best to clean the airbrush after use?
Hi Graeme
We recommend you use our own cleaner - Ultimate Airbrush Cleaner - You can get some here - https://www.umpretail.com/collections/painting/products/ultimate-airbrush-thinner-cleaner-bundle

Is it specifically formulated for airbrush use or can it be applied with a traditional paintbrush as well?
Hi
It's easily applied with a brush. As it's self levelling you'll find you'll still get a nice smooth finish

I tried to use it; for me, it didn't work at all well, because it wouldn't adhere to the plastic. Sanding caused peeling, with it coming off in strips. Just my experience, your mileage may vary, as they say over the pond.
Mike
Hi Mike
Sorry to hear you've had a bad experience. To be honest, there must've been something wrong with the plastic itself for this primer not to adhere to it as this is the primary function for a primer! I can only assume that there was mold release agent or similar contamination on the plastic.
Again with the peeling, this will solely be down to not letting it cure for long enough. As our primer is a self levelling polyurethane primer, it needs time to cure sufficiently enough to fully allow sanding and other rough treatment. We recommend that it is allowed 24 hours to cure before sanding.
All the best

I agree Mike.
A few questions if I may.
Are the o rings rubber or PTFE?
Is it easy to dismantle for ease of cleaning?
Are spares readily available?
Last but not least... how many shillings will it cost?
Thanks
Gary.
Hi Gary
You can find all your answers here...

Will this price be available from your website for those of us that can't make Telford. ( A little too far ) I've just registered on your website & looked at another kit I'm keen on but noticed that when I put it into the cart it doesn't show a reduction for the loss of VAT. I didn't take it any further, not being in a position to complete the purchase this week, but do your export prices take the VAT off or not? Thanks,
Steve.
Hi Steve
I'm afraid that price was a 'show only' price and we do not take any VAT off as we are not VAT registered.
All the best
