Nail polish Painting!

I have heard of nail enamel being thinned and sprayed. Actually, I have airbrushed my wife's nails before. If you use nail enamel, you should probably prime with Floquil Barrier to be safe. I thinned about 50/50 with acetone when I painted her nails. It has very loud fumes so use only in a well ventalated area.

I use Duplicolor primer, and thin the nail polish 50-50 with laquer thinner. Nail polish is usually tranclucent, so you will need to build up your color. Hope this helps. Any questions, shoot me a email.
