I have tried airbrushing life colour paints using their own thinners water but it seems no matter how little thinner i use it seems to just run as if it has broken down has any one any suggestions

Hi Michael,

I experienced the same. I use an Evolution 2-in-1 airbrush and experimented a while until it worked. The colors are strongly pigmented and clog the nozzle pretty fast (especially the fine nozzles). I thin the Lifecolor paints with their own thinner (paint to thinner ratio approx. 2:1) and use a 0.4 mm nozzle @ approx. 0.5 bar (approx. 7 psi?) pressure.

Hope this helps!

Cheers,
Rainer

You should work having a cotton swab damp with thinner near you. When the nozzle seems to be clogged you wet the tip of the airbrush with the cotton swab and you'll fix the problem

I hope this can help you

cheers

thanks Guys I will try yours suggestions
