Recently i bought some of Hannants new Xtracrylics paints and have had serious problems getting it to work effectively in my airbrush. On the bottle it says to use between 10-15% water to thin it. I have tried this, and other % but have not had any success at getting the paint to flow with any consistancy. It is either to thin, or too thick. I mix it until it has the consistency of milk, but it still will not spray consistantly. I use an Iwata airbrush and compressor, and i have varied the pressure i am spraying at.

Any suggestions/help?

You could try thinning with alcohol...

Hi,

I normally thin xtracrylix with Tamiya Thinner and it works well.

Thank John, i will give that a go i think, never had any problems with Tamiya acrylics so maybe their thinner will help.
