I am about to use this brand for the first time and bought the brush mix by mistake. Their pamphlet says it is thinnable with water for airbrushing, anyone use this paint before and if so, any idea on a good thinning ratio? Thanks for any help.

I use the big V and think their paints are great. I thin with water to the consistency of milk and it works fine. I think you will find them one of the best out there.

I think I might say tthat they are very delicate paints apply a top coat of something to seal them!
Not as durable as Tamiya or Polly Scale!
