Using Future
Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, September 6, 2003 11:21 PM
Quick question about Future. I am new to a/c modeling, been doing ships for 20 yrs. To airbrush Future do you need to thin it at all,and if so what with? Have a few aircraft I'm building for some vets and want do do some heavy weathering on them and have been hearing quite alot about Future but as I said I am a novice at aircraft modeling.

This is from the future FAQ in techniques:
QUOTE:
For airbrushing
I use it stright from the bottle - 20 -25 psi, no need to dilute and I suspect
since it thins with water you would end up with puddles....
Dont try to do it in one coat - 2 -3 thin coats
Dipping :
This takes some practice - just dip the part in, then touch one edge
on a paper towel a few times to soak off the excess , leave to dry on a clean surface - but move it around after a minute to prevent it from sticking

If you over do it or dont like the results - just soak in windex and it will all come
off

You can actually brush on future with a standard brush with no problems. It's alot easier than trying to thin it.
