I haven't had a lot of time lately to devote to working on actual project do customer orders for my "side business" but I didn't want my airbrush getting lonely so tonight I decided to take about 30 min or so and just do some playing around. I still have not found that perfect combination of air pressure and paint reduction for the best results, so thats what I messed with tonight.
I took a piece of watercolor paper and marked it out with 9 different squares and marked them with the reduction and air pressure. I went from 10 PSI to 15 PSI to 20 PSI, with reductions of 1:1, 2:1, and 4:1 at each pressure. I was actually surprised how fine of a dot and line I could get out of a .35 NEO, it wasn't the easiest to super fine lines and dots but it was possible, but it felt as though there was a little bit of a "slop" (for lack of a better word) in the trigger and it took a lot of focus and concentration to keep that fine line. I can see that over time working with this brush putting those very thin lines won't be an issue at all.
I still have a long way to go with trigger control as you can see but its so much better than I was even 2 weeks ago. My beginner advice to all the other beginners out there, it may be boring to make dots and lines over and over again but it really does help, and play with your reductions and your your pressure, I was really really surprised that it seems as thought 20PSI at a 2:1 reduction is a comfortable spot.
