Decanting Krylon -Anyone ever done it?
Posted by hooknladderno1 on Sunday, May 2, 2010 10:59 PM

Just curious.  After recently sucessfully decanting Tamiya spray lacquer for airbrushing,  I'd like to try the same with the Krylon.  Any tips?  Thanks.

I've decanted Krylon primer and airbrushed it.  Works fine with no thinning.   Since you've already done some decanting, it sounds like you don't need any help there.

Ditto on the above post. decanting is sometimes your only choice for a color you want. Or need that airbrushed fine layer Vs. a heavy spray can coat.

Just build it (and post pics when youre done)

Sprays OoC (Out of Can) like glass! They have flat military colors now. One that looks interesting is 'Olive drab' that looks more brown than green, perfect for variety among Allied armor!Yes

All this decanting and fuss makes me dizzy!Tongue Tied

Dave, I decant auto primer filler and brush it over fine gaps, use it for leveling, and covering small surface imperfections.
