Just playing around with some ne stencils and some old pain.

Is the pain expressed by the eyes...or the skulls?

 

[Jacks9930]

lol no pain just some old paint and new stencils. Some times I think faster then I type and miss a few letters and words. I horrible at checking my work too. School was long and hard.

What kind of paint are you spraying and if you do, how do you thin it? I have used Createx and Faskolor and have trouble with both. I'm using a Paasche VLS-SET Double Action Siphon Feed Airbrush and I have an older model I use for spraying the paint and clear on model cars but I just can't get it right for spraying flames or doing stencils.

Auto Air colours and Createx. The auto air colour I was mixing about 3 to 1, the create I was mixing thicker about 2 to 1. Using Windex as a thinner and I'm using the Badger 360 air brush.

The video I used to help me was

Yes, I have seen these videos. I have never used auto air colour or used Windex as a thinner. I will give it a go the next time I try. Thank you.

After you mentioning the Auto air paint, I went to the Createx and was reading through their tutorials and I think I'm not using enough pressure and I'm not thinning it enough. It recommends 30 to 60#, depending on how thick it is. I've been trying to spray using less than 30 and it has always been a fight to keep it coming out of the air brush. I've been doing this using a small diaphragm compressor instead of my large compressor so I do have more pressure available, if that is my problem.

 

[Jacks9930]

I have large air compressor and I have it regulated down to 30psi for the air brush. I have never used more then 30psi.
