Palmetto Balsa Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 If you filter it a time or two after you thin it you should be able to shoot it. If you plan of painting a lot, you might want to buy a few bottles of airbrush paint. A ounce or two will go a long ways and the cost isn't that much. The biggest difference is the pigments in the paint, airbrush paints have finer pigments to help keep them flowing smooth and not clogging the guns. Correct me if I am wrong but I think the Liquitex are the ones that come in the tubes and are designed to be put on a pallet and brushed (just want to make sure I am thinking of the right paints).
