Good Evening My Fellow Shipmates. BigGrin

Can anybody tell me if you can use the Admiralty Paint set with an Airbrush? If so what is the best solution to use with it to stop it drying out to fast on the needle, as I have found out in the past using water based paint. Crying

Many Thanks In Advance (MTIA) BigGrin
Happy Building, Russ

Hi ,
Mixing it to consistency of milk (with water), also add a couple of drops of fairy up liquid not too much and have your air pressure low. If you have it high it will splatter and dry out too quick.

Hope that helps :)

I think you can use retarder (hope I spelled it well). they are usually used for acryllic paints. So because those paints are waterbased as Admirality paints it sholud work
