Now if you can keep your BP at around 120/80 at the same time, you should be all set.

12-15 psi what happens if you turn the psi up?

is it easier to paint with an airbrush that has low psi?

Thanks for all the info.


the 12-15 psi does the paint squirt out like crazy or is it easy to control?

I have been thinking of getting an airbrush, but if its hard I dont know if its something I should try, its alot of money if I dont learn how to use it.

The Lizard you have painted, how many hours did that one take?

How many years have you been painting with an airbrush.
