Good morning, Mark,

Thinner is always better for these small pick-up tube air-type guns.? Acrylic enamel is common for car paint.? It is very thin...as thin as, possibly thinner (viscosity-wise) than water.

While I haven't painted a plane (yet?), I see that Polyurethane (PU) is common -- no experience with how thick that is or what is used to thin it, however.

I also have two can-type air guns if you want to give them a whirl with a small compressor.

Dave,

? Do you have to reduce the paint before spraying it ? Can it spray any type of paint ??

Hi Mark,

I have this simple setup I've used for quite a few small area jobs (e.g., hobbies, models).

If you have liqiud samples, this allows a simple filling of a glass bottle to enable spraying it with the propellant which entrains the paint up through a small 'straw' of the sample bottle to the tiny spray gun nozzle.

I have the former. Not so much the latter. Willing to try. Jm

Greetings,

? Does anyone in our group have an airbrush setup and know how to use it ? I am in the process of selecting colors for our RV4 and I need someone to paint some sample coupons for me.
