Ok i've decided to go enamels. I know you can buy an array of premixed colours, but can you mix your own as easily as with acrylics? You know a dab of black go make a colour richer or usinf secondaries etc.

What kind of ratios of paint and thinners is required for:

1. Air brushing?
2. Washng into planking, minor cracks?

And finally what type and grades of sand paper should be used to:

1. Prep the surface or is prepsol sufficient?
2. To level the freshly painted/washed painted surface?

Sorry for all the questions but I've now changed tact and am pretty much at the start again
