Flat32 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Anybody have experience with these?? Liquitex acrylic spray paint nozzle assortment Would like to know if they can work on other than Liquitex paint cans, hopefully primers.

St Louis Snacker Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I have used the Liquitex Soft Body Acrylics thinned with Liquitex air brush medium. You can also use Liquitex acrylic ink without thinning. I'm sorry I've never tried the spray cans. Good Luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the soft body Liquitex and airbrush them for certain applications too ( great for interiors, chassis, engine, drive line etc). I use the airbrush medium in some of their paints and in their varnishes. But I also make my own airbrush thinner that works good with the soft body line of paints. IMO sometimes better than their medium, it sprays on more enamel like. Just depends on the color really, the thicker colors need a bit of medium for an initial cut even if I use my thinner. I know nothing about Liquitex spray cans or the accessory nozzles though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flat32 Posted February 28, 2019 Author Share Posted February 28, 2019 Well then, I'll buy a set of nozzles and check them out. I'll probably dissect them to see what detail controls the spray pattern in them, after trying them on other cans. Appreciate the comments made on airbrushing and inks. I am hoping to find a way to primer small parts without setting up an airbrush. Just want a small pattern out of a can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisBcritter Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Testor's has a similar set of nozzles for their paint - I've used the smallest one for painting a promo-style chassis and it's good for getting paint into tight areas without having to bathe the whole thing.

I could have used those 40 years ago when I shot about everything with Testors or Pactra rattle cans. I used to shoot it all but the car body on the sprue trees as I recall.
