Thank you, Dan. I am a first time viewer, and I learned a great deal from your video. I did not know about maintaining air flow after stopping the paint and the reason why. It makes perfect sense. Adding the reducer before the paint also makes a lot of sense. Does reducer ever go bad? My reducer seems to cause the paint to clump. How do you feel about distilled water as a reducer. There are several vids that recommend it over commercial reducer. Subscribed and a now a regular viewer.

@TheAirbrushGarage

Michael, reducer should not go bad. Now, Createx paint really has no timeline on shelf life unless, the paint experience freeze thaw, that can ruin your paint. As far as water as a reducer, I like to use the reducer recommended by the manufacture of the paint. I have used water with the Illustration colors with success, but I still would rather use a few drops of 4011. I do not recommend using water with Createx Wicked colors. Wicked dry's much harder than illustration and is formulated for exterior use. It's basically a water based urethane The 4011 "melts" together with the Wicked and produces a much better viscosity than water would. Thanks for the question and thanks for watching.

And I was ready to quit right now I’m running a 1-1 ratio I went out and bought the 30 gallon air flow compressor with the multi lines and have nothing but cretex paint and that’s ridiculous expensive! And went out and bought an Iwata eclipse and an Iwata micron so I’m into this for about 2 grand just in paint and brushes and another $1000 for the pump system with multi moisture traps for all my Iwata brushes and I was ready to bury it all in my back yard cause I couldn’t get the flow right and then it would spider out then after no kidding 10 seconds tip would be caked ! So thank you my god where we’re you 2 times I quit before lol thank you from the bottom of my heart seriously that’s AWSOME how you broke it down for us newbies!

And let it sit for a few minutes to allow the reducer to "melt" together with the paint, give it another mix in the cup, a quick back wash, and you should be good.

Hi Joe, all good questions. You can use any airbrush cleaner as it is compatible with the type of paint you are using. What I mean by that is water-based or solvent based. I am assuming you are using water-based. The Windex is ok, but get it without ammonia. Isotope alcohol works, too. My preference is the reducer recommended with the paint. I use Createx soI use 4011 reducer. That works the best! What paints and reducer do you have?

Adam. I always recommend using the reducer that is meant for your paint. You might be able to clean Illustration colors with water but you will have a hard time with the Wicked colors. Water will not reactivate any dried Wicked paint, like on the side of the cup. Next, yes you can reduce your paint in the bottle. Some say it will reduce your shelf life but I have not seen that. It will last a long time. Thanks for the questions and thanks for watching.

Is 30C+ (86F+) just too hot to airbrush water based paints? I recently did a small project and it came out extremely rough. I'm thinking it was caused by the temps being so hot that the water based paint is already drying mid air. I was using a Creos Ps290 (0.5mm) at around 30 PSI with wicked opaque white reduced around 10-15%.

Funkaliber, I have painted in hotter. Lol. Your setup sounds good. I usually thin it out to around 50/50 when the conditions are hot. Or more if needed. Start at 50/50 and add a few drops of 4011 until you get it flowing. Hope this helps.

Great videos. This ratio has me so confused. I thought createx wants you to add 10%-30% reducer to the paint or ten drops paint and one to three drops reducer. Am I correct that you’re reducing 150%? Or I think the way you are saying it 50% reduction?

@TheAirbrushGarage

Pink, this is for beginners who are having trouble and getting frustrated getting paint to flow. It is a way for them to basically start at zero and add paint slowly until they find their sweet spot. As they gain experience, they will be able to just add 10% reducer. I have developed this through my own experience and from viewers telling me that they just can't get paint to come out consistently or at all. When I ask...can you get straight reducer to flow, the answer is usually yes. So that is the starting point. As one learns trigger control, tip dry and flow will improve. And it won't be long until they are just adding the 10%. Thanks for the question, and thanks for watching.

@TheAirbrushGarage

Жыл бұрын

My favorite way is to put a little reducer in a small cup and use a small paint brush. Brush the reducer on the needle and nozzle. Make sure you dap it with a paper towel and give it a shot of air. That will prevent you from blowing reducer on to your project. The quicker way is to use your thumb and first finger to pinch the needle as close to the nozzle as possible and pull. You run the risk of bending your needle tip with this method. You won't have to worry about that with the paint brush. Hope this helps.Thanks for the question, and thanks for watching.

Hi Karen, sorry to hear you are having problems. There are two things to check. 1st, make sure your needle is pushed all the way forward and tighten the needle nut. If that is not the problem, then take your needle nozzle off, get some reducer in it, and gently use a needle reamer. This will ensure your needle nozzle is clear. This is most likely the problem. Here is a link to a needle reamer amzn.to/47nHRTG. Hope this helps.
