Fasfluorescent Orange. I'm still learningn bigtime with the single action. I dont paint enough bodies to get real proficient(?) with the airbrush yet. I've had soem that turned out good, but couldve been better. I just need to be more patient when painting.

My first time I sprayed with airbrush last month with Paashe airbrush VL. The new paint was O.K. approx 600kpa thinned with water but some other colour paint splatered.Only Palma Fascolor used. I went to #5 tip from #3 thinking I could do broader area but caused problems. Might have to try windex trick??? Fine detail #1 or is it other way #5 fine detail.

Default Fascolor

I've been using Fascolor for a long time with no problems. If you check their web site they instruct you to paint at 50 psi. I usually spray with a little less psi and have never had to thin it but if I start having problems I trun up the pressure. If you thin it you can spray at a lower psi. Never had a problem with flaking or pealing. A lot depands on your prep prior to painting. To fuel proof it I spray a coat of clear laquor when I'm finished. If the body doesn't have overspray film I wipe the outside down with alcohol.
