Evil Eye Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Decanting spray cans is an old trick for using paint normally only available in aerosol form to use by airbrush. I'd always wondered about the mechanics of it, but a YouTube modeller I subscribe to, one Barbatos Rex (a mecha modeller admittedly) gave a very helpful tutorial on how to do it. I was considering doing this myself with, for example, Citadel's new Corax White spray paint, as I have heard it's astoundingly good as white primers go, and whilst I'm very fond of Mr. Surfacer White 1500, it'd possibly be a bit more efficient (as you get a LOT of paint in a spray can and when decanted for airbrushing it goes much further). However I was wondering, what kind of paint is it and what thinners would I need to use with it? I'm assuming it's not the same lacquer base as, say, Mr. Surfacer, and thus Mr. Thinner would most likely not work.
