Clear Coat Airbrushing webby residue
Posted by amark16 on Monday, February 28, 2011 1:47 PM

Hi guys

I'm spraying with Revell's Glossy Clear Coat Airbrush paint (supposedly ready for immediate airbrush use) and I get this spiderweb-like residue all over the place. Anybody know how to avoid this? The obvious answer is thinning but I don't want to thin too much, since it is supposed to be ready for use right out of the bottle.

You need to thin the paint some more and/or reduce your air pressure.

Keep in mind that airbrushes are not all created equal and there are many, many variations, so the term "airbrush ready" does not always apply. What will work in a 0.5mm bottom feed brush may not work (or not work as well) in a 0.2mm top feed.
