Dropped the pressure to 10 psi
Am I too far away now or is this about right?
Looks good to me. But I am noob.
I did some spraying on plastic.
As soon I was to far away it made weard patterns cause of drying paint in the air before hitting the surface. I think someone mentioned that in this thread already.
I also was shooting at 30 psi. My paint was reduced 10% reducer 90%paint. It worked very nice, but when I tried the same with green color I had the issue of weird patterns. So I tried 20%reducer and 80%paint and it worked for green color. I was also very carefull not to get tip dry, cause I had few moments when paint was building on the tip and I blow it out with airbrush on to the plastic.
I was doing this with eclipse, if I am not mistaken you have h&s, but 10 psi sounds very small pressure to me. This would be pressure for details. And even for details seems low.
Like I told you, I'm noob with this, so take it with a grain of sol. Others will know more.
edit: just in case... As soon you press trigger your pressure drops. So when you are setting working pressure, hold trigger down , and while you are blowing air set the pressure. I didn't pay attention how experienced you are with airbrushing, so just in case.
edit2: just noticed few of the posts. Looks like 30 psi is to much. I trust Twoods judgment, cause he is the master at this. For me 30psi worked when I was doing what I did. I wonder if today would be different. I would trust Twoods advices
I am still looking a way how to steal that saw blade of his
