Can someone please tell me if you can airbrush Vallejo paints from the bottle?

Almost any of your acrylics can be thinned with distilled water or alcohol and spray painted. You just have to come up with the right mixture. Trial and error should provide the right mix.

Hi Wolf,
I thought that Vallejo Air acrylics could be sprayed from the bottle but the standard Vallejo acrylics must be thinned.

That was my understanding as well
