Hello,

I have recently tried airbrushing Lifecolor acrylics recently. When I spray them they always seem to splatter and have a somewhat watery look to them. The finish seems to come out ok though.

I do thin them with Lifecolor thinner and use airpressure set to 20psi. My question is, is there a better to thin/airbrush this paint? Or is this just the way this paint is?

Thanks,

Brian

Life color paints are on the watery side. I will add a drop or two of water to the paint cup, seems to help the paint flow a little smoother. Also, try dropping the psi down to 10-12, maybe 15 on the high end. Hope this helps.

Hey, thanks Jon. I will give that a shot.

you can try also to add some retarder or flow-impruver,vallejo made both but also other company like liquitex
