I use Pro-tec, don't know if it is the best, it is just more available to me. I did notice that some colors (pink, red, and baby bass) clump a lot more and are more heat intolerant. Maybe it is just the way I heat the heads, but the pink is the hardest for me to get a good "dip". Good luck!

If you're airbrushing, most guys use water based acrylic latex airbrush paint. I don't have a favorite brand, it just depends on the color I'm looking for, but Createx brand is sold the most widely.

Do you thin createx? Thats what I use now but I dont thin it at all. I just spray and go. I does dry in the air brush after a few min.

If you're shooting fine lines or small details at very low pressure, thinning might be required to get the spray pattern you want. But mostly I shoot it straight.
