Airbrushing Model Flex Paint

[Anonymous]

i also use a badger air brush and model flex paints....they are already thinned and i have found them to work great....i recommend using distilled water for cleanup of your paint gear....my rolling stock has never looked any better using model flex....

Hi Guys,

ModelFlex is already thinned and ready to spray, right out of the bottle.

If you're spraying with a good quality brush, try 25 to 30 p.s.i.

Hi James,
it looks like we have a few things in common. I received an Badger 150 airbrush on my birthday a few years back. I just bought an air compressor, so I'm just about ready to give it a shot myself! (with the model flex paints). Check out the Badger website, it has alot of helpfull information http://www.badger-airbrush.com/modelflex.htm . My airbrush came with a few manuals and helpfull tips on using the airbrush. Kalmbach publishing has books and a video on 'airbrush painting'. (Take a look in the Model railroader 4/05, page 106). Good Luck! Have Fun!

Got a few questions, need a few responses.
I started airbrushing with model flex paints and was wondering if I should thin out these paints( and what ratio). Also what PSI should I be airbrushing with? Anyone know of any really good website with info on how to weather engines and cars with an airbrush. any help would be appreciated. I am using a Badger Model 150 dual-action airbrush with either a fine or medium tip. Post it or E-mail it

Thanks,
James Furman
