    Does it matter on what type of enamel brand I use for an airbrush? I have Testors right now but I’m not sure if that the recommend brand to air brushe gunpla?

    • i srsly dont recomend testor as it is the crappiest paint ive ever used in my life time of gundams it killed my panel lining it takes forever to dry and its not that cheap its a pretty small bottle and its a pretty small bottle of thinner too id recomend tamiya enamels or modelmaster but if u want u could use other different painted like laquer or acrylic from tamiya or mr color enamels i usually use them for small details and panel line wash

      • Can you buy tamiya, Mr . color or model master at any hobby store? Or is online the only place where to get them here in the U.S.?

        • i think almost everyhobby shop out there sells tamiya paint mr color however im not too sure buecause mine does not becasse certain hobby shops dont sell em becasue they cant make money off it it really depends on location and wht they sell too but for the most part modelmaster tamiya humbrol vallejo aclad theyre usually well known in hobby shops

      • Just so you know, Model master is made by Testor.

        If you’re going to use testors paints, Model master for your air brush, as its a bit of a different composition, and the standard testors for brushing. Testors paints aren’t bad at all, everyone just has their own preferences. However, don’t stick to one brand of paint, because all of them do some colors better then others. For example, Mr. color has the BEST gold paint you’re gonna find.
