For our RC stuff get the Paasche get the double action. It works well with the Pactra paints get the ones that thin with laquer thinner not the water base.


I have some of the IWATA and other high detail airbrushes but don't like them with the RC lexan paint.


Use a regular home use air compressor and get you a knob turn style regulator like on a paint gun for automotive. You will have plenty of air , it works better and no need to get a special low duty air compressor.


You should be able to get the airbrush and regulator and couple extra bottles for less than $125 don't quote me I have had my airbrushes for over 15 years and not sure on todays prices. I guess showing my age. LOL

You get one get your decal man to start mirror your stickers on his program and give you the bourder not the decal then stick the bourder on inside and spray away.

I have a $50 airbrush and use the water based stuff too. I just cover with krylon clear after. I want a small compressor though. I bought a dewalt direct drive for a small high output unit for auto detailing but it's loud


check youtube. there are a ton of great training vids. check out edd hubbs, he's amazing
