  1. Thanks Musky Glenn! As tiny as the o-ring is I doubt I could ever pull that off but I may give it a try so it's at least it's usable and not taking up storage space. lol
  2. Hey Chuck, Thanks for the info. Before I bought the new Paasche VL series airbrush I experienced all of this: If that seal goes, your airbrush sucks air. It might pulse and eventually not draw paint at all. Now that I have the Paasche all worries are over. Great brush and very easy to clean. I'll keep the cheap Central Pneumatic as a reminder that 20.00 airbrushes are not meant for what I was wanting to do. lol P.S. Nice paint work on your baits brother!
  3. Hello smallmouthaholic! All good information and very much appreciated sir. Thank you for the guidance and support on this matter.
  4. Hey Musky Glenn, I am using the thinner that is displayed in the same area as the paint. It contains methyl isobutyl, ketone, and xylene. I can only find it where ever the paint is sold or on the www. I've tried 2 other thinners and they won't mix. In fact it turns they paint into a blob of too. Thanks for the input.
  5. Thanks CNC Molds N Stuff! I'll stop by the next one I see and see if I can't get replacements for the Central Pneumatic Deluxe airbrush kit. That way I'll have a couple back up guns.
  6. Hey Mark, The manual that came with the airbrush didn't even show the O-Ring so I would have had to gone some where and see if I could find one that fit. No worries though. The new Paasche VL I picked up is 10 X the airbrush it was. So Mr Smallmouthaholic, thanks for the heads up on the airbrush. It works fantastic!!!
  7. Hey smallmouthaholic! I was at Hobby Lobby looking at their airbrush selection when I got your reply. I just purchased the Paasche VL series. I'm headed to the shop to see how she works. I promise not to be mad at ya if I don't like it. Thank you for information and keep a tight line! Darrell
  8. I am painting my jigs with an airbrush. I am using the CS Vinyl Lure Paint. The paint goes on very nicely and I really appreciate this method over dipping. The issue I am having is the thinner. I am using the CS Lure and Jig Finish thinner for thinning and clean up. The problem is the thinner is eating up the O-Rings in my airbrush. My air brush is the cheap Harbor Freight Central Pneumatic Deluxe airbrush kit.. My question is: Can I use a lacquer thinner with this paint? Or should I invest in a better airbrush? Do they even make an airbrush that will shoot vinyl paint?This particular air brush has a very thin O-Ring between the air cap and the air cap body. The exploded parts list does not even show this O-Ring which means I would probably never find one. Any help would be greatly appreciated and thank you in advance.
