Hey, I'm looking into learning how to airbrush and found your videos very helpful! I just have 1 question tho (just to be sure). You mentioned in this video that you apply 3 coats for every main color of this gradient design color. I was wondering whether you let each coat dry before applying the next one or do you just go around the shoe and apply 3 coats in one go and then go on to the next color and repeat that process for each color?

@DeJesusCustomFootwear 3 жыл бұрын

Yes you want to give around 15 mins of dry time between coats!

Starting with a white sneaker, if I did a gradient , then wanted to do white designs on top, would recommend masking those designs, where it would be white, then airbrush the different colors…once dry, peel off design mask….OR, like you did in the video, airbrush the gradient, then stencil designs with white paint?
