I like it sir. You are correct about there are several people making their own cleaner/thinner. As you mentioned Hobby Lobby has a very large selection of these paints in several prices. Have you noticed that the more expensive paints need less thinner to get the consistency you want? The compressor you are using, do you feel it’s a better choice than a smaller airbrush version of compressor?

The airbrush paints are generally ready to be sprayed but some still need a reducer. My shop air compressor does fine so I haven’t felt the need to spend extra money to buy a smaller air compressor just for airbrushing. I have a moisture trap on the air compressor and I drain the tank before I use it to make sure moisture doesn’t make it to the airbrush. Plus I have the mini inline moisture trap attached to the airbrush. So far I haven’t had any issues with moisture getting to the airbrush.
