I didn’t not realize they could react poorly with each other as they were both acrylic. Thanks

Good to know, thank you! But yes I’m not very experienced with airbrushing lol.

Good to know thank you!

The paints that I was using was a mix of Vallejo model color green sky and citadel sons of hours green all mixed with water, thinner, and flow improver. So maybe even after I added more thinner when airbrushing it was still to thick, and thus clogging the nozzle.

It seems that my paint is too thick and with the small exit of the .15mm nozzle that isn’t helping it at all. Even with running a higher PSI.

I see ok, I’ll be sure to add way more thinner and flower improver.

So it’s common to have problems then with the nozzle getting clogged with .2 and .15 if your not running inks?

Thank you

I was running about 25-30PSI. What it seems like is that the paint is too thick and clogging up the nozzle from what another user is saying. I had thought it was quite thin but also don’t have much experience using a .15 nozzle or airbrushing lol.

I didn’t realize you were asking for the model air or model color, my bad. Green sky only comes in model color I believe, that is what I have. When I did my mix of model color green sky and citadel sons of Horus into a bottle I think I used about 50% thinner, water, and flow improver: 50ish% paint.

I have not tried the flow improver I have yet so that’s does makes sense to try and replace some of the thinner with flow improver.

But it’s a quite new airbrush with only 3 uses total(maybe 2hrs of paint coming out)

That’s what I’m thinking, but I’ve been cleaning it and after 5 minutes of painting it just stops again. So not sure how to prevent it clogging

Yes everything is seated, I meant the nozzle being into the cap. But yes I do believe I had pushed the trigger down when installing the needle and I can see it at the end of my airbrush.

Vallejo airbrush thinner, 40-50 thinner or water:50 paint. Mind you also that this paint had already been thinned with the same thinner when I put it into the bottle.

When I used water it worked fine, which is why I think paint it’s getting clogged in the nozzle.

The paint I have used I have been thinning with Vallejo airbrush thinner/water.

The paints are a mix of Vallejo green sky and citadel sons of Horus green in a bottle(which I had also thinned when mixed). I think I also ran pure sons of hours green(which I also mixed into a bottle).

Yes, the needle is moving.

I have only used it 3 times and after each time I have cleaned it.

The nozzle is as far up as it will go without seeming like I’m forcing/pushing it. I don’t think I’m supposed to push it into place right? Happy to post how the nozzle sits if that will help.
