Humpalot,

i use Pantone enamels with the airbrush which allow me to mix any RGB colour. Standard acrylics will clog the nozzle as the particles are too big - you will need airbrush acrylics if using these. Standard enamels work well also.

I also find that the 3mm nozzle ( i dont use any other) will spray clear coat well also, in fact better than my expensive touch up spray gun.

63whizz,

Mate, cant go past the 2.5hp compressor for a bargain - they used to be $350, but have come down dramatically in price. The 30M of hose you bought with it is worth nearly what you paid for the whole lot, just remember to bleed off the water in the compression chamber after use each time and youll be OK
