De-gassing decanted spray paints

Roger that.

It's worked really well for me. That way, I have no worries that all the "gas" has been allowed to escape, without letting any moisture escape from it. Neart the end, after a couple hours, I can generate some more gas by shaking it a bit, or banging it on the counter just a bit. 

Then after a bit it stops generating bubbles completely, and I put it in a glass container with screw top. For the first couple days, if I think about it, I'll crack the tops to let any residual gas out, but there's nothing really there to speak of. 

I like the idea of getting the paint to body temp. Especially in the winter months. 

Good stuff!

Mk10 that's a good idea. I'll have to give it a go ....what I do is use a old tamiya 10mm paint bottle. Once I've decanted the paint I put the lid on just enough to cover ..but leaving it losely on ..as the gas escape it'll lift the lid off the rim of the bottle. .I also do this ...once I have decanted the paint .the paint is cold so I'll speed up the process by holding it in my warm hands this makes it boil faster than letting it stand on the bench. When the boiling slows I place the lid on it as said before. Let it sit for an hour then I screw the lid tight ..give it a good shake. .if you hear a Phsss when you OPEN IT VERY SLOWLY. ..it's not ready to airbrush. I usely wait a day with the lid losely on .paint won't dry ..when it stops phissing it's ready ..no thinning necessary hope this helps

I will sometimes put a piece of tape or food wrap over the container while waiting for the propellant to outgas.  When the bublbing stops, I peek inside, swish the container around a bit to make sure there are no more bubbles, then use in the AB.  HTH

following youtube vids on decanting spray paint is the only way. it will not solidify as long as the dispensed paint is gathered in a container wher it can pool up. Look at the decanting spray paint vids on the net. It works.
