Okay, I have been reading these boards and doing searches and I cant quite figure out the answer to my question.
I am using Model Master Acrylics NOT the Enamels.
I bought the thinner for the Acrylics. On the side of the bottle it says this:
"Most model Master Acryl colors will airbrush without thinner. The exception is the Figure colors which have been formulated with a higher vicossity. A thinning ratio of 4 parts paint to 1 part thinner is suggested for figure colors"
1 of my questions is what is a figure color? I'm using like ghost gray, gunship gray... and ect... are they figure colors?
2nd question is... what is a good thinning ratio for Model Master Acrylic colors? would it be 4 to 1?
I'm just a bit confused here, very new to airbrushing... and i'm a bit confused on the ratio i need to use. cause i tried just pouring that paint right to the airbrush.. and it didnt work... for any of the colors im using.... so please answer my questions! ahh!
Thanks,
John
edit: OOPS and what is the difference bettween thinner and cleaner? I bought some airbrush cleaner for my aztek for acrylics... can that be used as thinner?... it smells the same as the thinner... smells like windex, lol..
