Best PSI To Apply Future?????????
Anyone have prefered PSI to use for this? I keep getting orange peel.

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 - with my Paasche VL airbrush - that around 25psi works, as long as I apply it in thin coats. Otherwise, it starts to run!Thomas E. Johnson wrote:Anyone have prefered PSI to use for this? I keep getting orange peel.
