I have the Iwata HP-B+ (which is a 0.2mm brush) and had some problems with Faskolor paints (slightly thinned), so I converted the nozzle to 0.3mm which has now made a world of difference.

I spray Faskolor around 20psi.

Default Cool mini paint job

Hi,

Paul Rush (slotmachine) painted this Mini body for me. Brian Donnelly (bkdonnelly) gets the photo credits. At least my car will look good for the TCS nats.
