Hey man, it’s been awhile since I’ve been on this site site so I apologize for the late thank you for the advice! You’ll be happy to know that since then, I got the Mr. Compressor L7! I don’t know how to set up and use the air regulator though. T-T
So I recently just got the Mr. Compressor L7 and it came with an air regulator. I know how other regulators work but, I can’t seem to figure out how to set up and use mine. Any advice on the matter would be greatly appreciated! 🙂
Hi guys, I seek your advice. How can I get good results using the Mr. Hobby Cute Compressor? I recently got it since I am starting out and I found out that the power is…
4 Psi is really really low. To get some paint out of your airbrush, either one, you need to thin the paint heavily. Orange peal is the result of a too fast drying paint, to avoid it one can add retarder to the paint. The most likely problem for you with such a low air pressure will be the paint splotching….. That’s why my advice is to thin the…[Read more]

4 psi is really hard to work with. I use a wide range of paints in enamel, lacquer and acrylic and depending upon what I’m doing and which paint (not always small parts model kits) sometimes I use PSI as high as 40 that’s TEN times what this does. Even for model kits I have used over 10 psi many times. You’ll probably have to thin a lot. Pay…[Read more]

I recently started painting using an airbrush and I noticed that when I would paint, all that would come out would be clear liquid which I would assume is thinner, and not the actual color to be painted. I figured that I put too much thinner into the mix. What ratio of paint to thinner should I use?
depends on the paint. you kind of have to play around with it to get a ratio you like. for instance tamiya paint, some say a 1:1 ratio, i find that for 20 drops (pipette) of thinner i use 16-17 drops of paint. BUT i have been watching “Andy’s Hobby Headquarters” on youtube and he takes a fresh bottle of tamiya paint, opens it up and fills it the…[Read more]
oh also, if you are going to mix your paint and thinner in the paint cup of the air brush, i find turning the cup to the side and putting the thinner in first, trying to not let it get down where the needle is until i have mixed it with the paint helps to insure that i have all the thinner and paint mixed together
