Troubleshooting
Paint drying too quickly in the airbrush

Uneven finish or brush strokes
Apply thinner coats and allow for proper drying time between layers.
Paint not adhering to surface
Ensure the model surface is properly cleaned of oils and dust before application.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, ensure your model surface is clean and free of dust or oils. When using a brush, simple water dilution is sufficient to achieve your desired consistency. For airbrushing, ensure your mix does not exceed 25% dilution. If paint dries inside your equipment, use specialized cleaners like Airbrush Clean or Aqua Color Clean. Always remember that while you can paint over cured enamel base coats, the chemical structures are different, so you must never mix them in a single container or palette.
