Re: Airbrushing auto paint and primer.

I've used automotive paint in an airbrush. I'm not a pro and I'm not an artist. I painted the body of a model truck with the same paint on my truck and I've painted portions of the dash and some interior pieces inside my truck. I started with recommended mix then added thinner in order to get the pattern and coverage I wanted at a low pressure. The model truck was a bit fun because I had the air regulator set at about 20 psi when I figured out the mix and brush settings by spraying test shots at a junk fender. I turned around to spray the body and ended up blowing it about a foot away. Whoops! Lower pressure and try again.
