Hi, Is any one using acrylic paint to paint cars? If so what do you use? Testors, Tamyia?

Thanks Richard

I haven’t tried airbrushing a car with acrylic paint but I haven’t had any problems brushing the small parts with either Tamiya or Polly Scale acrylic paint. While I haven’t tried to airbrush a car body yet, I can’t imagine it would be any different than the aircraft and armour I 've airbrushed. If anyone knows of a difference, Let me know before I goof something up.

I use tamiya and testors acrylic, never had problems using them in the airbrush. only problem I have ever had with it was the -once in a great while- bottle of badness…yanno the one where youshake it, open it and the pigment seems to run down the bottle…check to make sure its all well and good before you dump it in the brush, but thats the only issue I have had with acrylic
