The search button does wonders. I just searched "airbrushing"
Here's a good thread; R/C Painting Questions Now, where'd you get the airbrush and how much was it? I'm looking to get one too. Suburban.Chicago.Rock.Crawlers

There are plenty of techniques, you have to decide what you want to do and what kind of effect you are looking to achieve

As Mike Czech has told me sooo many times.....patience and practice.
You can practice on old 2L pop bottles and scrap plastic. Plasticing on paper doesn't give the same feel as plastic because the paint moves around more on plastic when you spray it, causing splatters and runs, which you don't want. Experiment with tip/needle sizes, paint thinning, and air pressures to get the results you want. That is everything I know about the subject, except...clean it well before you put it away. And wear a respirator. You only get 2 lungs, and you need those to last you for a long time. |

thanks guys
matt u got a compressor at home like one u would hook like an air nailer up to? thats what i use i got it at walmart yesterday for 20 bucks. it came wth the comressed air stuff and 3 paint bottles. 2 wires to clean out lumps. and an air compesor adaptor. if u get it also pick up a male end connector one that has the threads on the out side is the one u can use. then set ur pressure and paint Racing from a roll is like beating off, it may be fun but its not the real thing. |
