Paint Thinning

Post by Challenger2Pete »

Ok people about to do some touch ups via my air brush & compressor so following questions

1 Do I have to use Tamiya Paint Thinners To Thin Their Paint Down? or Can I use Humbrol Paint Thinners?

2 & @ What ratio paint to thinners?


Thanks
Pete

30% or how it flows. never used tamiya paint i use vallejo or humbrol i find people that use tamiya are looking to copy the tam colour scheme. you have a button on your brush to allow as much paint as you require !

hope that helps.
