Location: Southern Ontario, Detroit River and Lake StClair | I used to do alot of airbrushing with laquer but do to space limitations I've been forced to switch to a water based paint. I'm wondering what PSI most of you guys are using with this kind oif paint? It's alot different than laquer to paint with for sure. I'm getting a lot of splatter and over spray which really cuts down on detail. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Tim

| I use Createx, which is water based, pretty sure they are acrylics....
Anyway, they are recommended to be shot at 45 psi, and that's normally what I shoot them at and I haven't had any problems. |
