Which paint did you buy?

You should not post your email on the internet like that. You will get all kinds of unwanted spam.

If it is water based acrylic, you can thin it with Fantastik cleaner, if it even needs it. Most airbrush paint is thinned enough for an airbrush, but if it sprays droplets, add a little thinner.

First coat, spray very lightly. Especially if you have masked any areas. Spray a light dusting along the edge of your masks and let it dry. It should be barely visible. Do this a couple times to seal the edge of your masks to prevent paint bleed.

After you give the entire body a couple light coats, go back with normal coats, letting it dry a few minutes between coats.

Start with your dark colors first. Make sure to hit any light spots before switching colors.

Back the paint with white for light colors, or black for dark colors.

I just email the place i got them from waiting on a reply

I also just found a place with createx paints. Sawxa video of a guy using them to paint bodies. Going to also get them and reducer for them. Just want to know if the paint needs thinning and what to use.

Do you guys have Fantastik cleaner over there? Best thinner there is for acrylic paints. And much cheaper than the stuff the paint companies try to sell ya.

For the Createx stuff, they require a certain thinner for their candies, but I have never had to use it. The stuff is really thin.
