Hi everybody. New here, but a long time N scale modeler and frequent AB painter. I recently lost (through a move) my Badger 200. I had used that brush a long time and knew it well, but I had wanted for a long time anyway to move to a double action gravity feed for small area work. Large background and base coat work has always been done with a single action external mix.
So I did a bunch of research and settled on the Renegade Velocity, which was just delivered today. My reasons for getting this over the Talon or an Iwata HP-C was based on a few things - I've been very happy with Badger ABs over the years, the Velocity so far seems to have gotten very nice reviews, and it also seems to be considered a great AB for the price.
My question goes to recommendations for paint reductions and pressures with a fine tip gavity feed. I use Floquil and Scalecoat solvent based paints, and Polyscale and Model Master acrylics. I tend to migrate more to the acrylics nowadays. I'm suspecting I should probably go with a more reduced mix for the fine tip plus lower pressure for the gavity feed, but would really appreciate getting user experiences with their own fine tip brushes and these paints.
