What have you got to say about the topic of: "Eyes... Yes or no?". Here's how is started: "Now, if I could only learn how to paint.... ..... what are you having trouble "

I bought it over a year and a half ago with a ton of paints and it's still sitting here unused. I haven't even watched the video yet. It's on the list but it's on the wrong list  Armand, I would really appreciate an "airbrush 101". Thanks!

| Eye - the bigger the better - Bass are head-bangers an it's my belief that they key in on the eyes when they hit - just a school of thought that I subscribe to - To change the paint color, lay a sheet of sandpaper or emery on a flat surface, use wire cutters and snip off the post on the back, lay it on the sandpaper and using light finger pressure, sand off the backing color - I actually use a dowel with a popper mouth cut into the end to hold the eye to sand it clean. Use 5 min epoxy to attach to the plug - this also displaces those pesky air bubbles that like to sneak out from under the eye after top-coating the plug. Schrock's International sells those eyes for 1.99 per 100 - The eyes have it!!! |

| Well, that's great to hear. I kinda lied earlier.... I did open the box. Just long enough to take the coiled air line out so I could get it to relax a bit. That was 2 weeks ago. It's been hanging in the shop since and it is straight once again. Baby steps.... I gotta take this slow. I have  Airbrushaphobia.... the fear of airbrushes. I'm told exposure to it is the only cure..... One step at a time....
