White paint

(1/3) > >>

Kiteman:
So being new to this airbrushing malarky I think that I need some assistance with a problem.
What is it with white paint. I am currently using Revell acrylics mixed with isopropyl alcohol and have had no great problems until I tried to spray white. The white clogs the airbrush causing it to stop and start, spit, fart and all sorts of problems. When I empty my pot there are lumps of white paint clogging everything in the airbrush. As I said, I have no problem with other colours, only white (so far). I can only assume that the colour is the problem. Can anyone recommend a good white paint with suitable thinning substance????

zak:
I use either Tamiya with their thinners or Vallejo with their thinners.

Roger:
I use Tamiya with their own thinners.  I think I used Xtracrylix white with their own thinners and that worked fine too.
Hope this helps,
Roger

bridlufc:
I agree, certain thinners work well with certain paints but not with others, I'm afraid it's a case of trial and error.
Stick with the thinners for which ever paint you are using.

That's it, Tamiya paint, Tamiya thinners, Vallejo paint, Vallejo thinners and so on.
