Hi,
I'm having real problems. Damn it, I've almost had enough of this.
I have a white van I'm converting to a camper, and there are a bunch of small spots that need touching up. Normal automotive spray cans are too much for this job - they deliver the paint too quickly, and some of the areas are fairly inaccessible. Therefore, I'm trying to use my Iwata Neo siphon-fed hobby airbrush, which has a 0.5mm needle, at about 25 PSI.
The problem is that the paint (Halfords white primer, for example) is coming out dry, leaving a rough surface. It's truly awful looking. I've tried it over and over, and keep having either to sand it smooth or remove it entirely with isopropyl alcohol and start again.
What should I do? All advice appreciated.
Thanks!
