I've found - with my Paasche VL airbrush - that around 25psi works, as long as I apply it in thin coats. Otherwise, it starts to run!

Using Future

With Future you should always experiment. It always depends on the airbrush you are using. With my aztec, I always "pump up" my PSI to around 35 to 45 psi then stand back at a good distance...at least one foot and mist coat the model as many times as needed to get the coverage I want...but that's just me. My advice again is to get out an old wrecked model or a large section of styrene that has a surface coat of paint then let fly. Never test on your project ! Good luck.

I've found out that different airbrushes require different PSIs, so it may depend largely on what type you have.

Shoot it at the same pressure as my paint (about 13 psi). Never had a problem. What are you applying the Future on top of?

Anyone have prefered PSI to use for this? I keep getting orange peel.
