Question About Painting A Latex Mask? - Earl - 05-13-2008
First I want to thank the guys that helped me pick a airbrush. Second, can anyone tell me if I need to thin the monster makers latex paint and if so what do I use to do it? Thanks for the help.

Ya I would thin it..it's pretty damn thick to use thru an airbrush. Consisency of milk is usually my rule of thumb. Whole milk of course LOL Maybe a little thicker....I sponge my base coats now anyway and just use something thinner thru my airbrush.Also, monster makers paints dry darker so be aware when you mix colors..that always bothered me. I assume it's the high latex content

I wasn't a fan of the monster maker paints the first time I used them. They were clogging up my air brush really fast so I called the company and they told me to add some water. But like Dan said it needs to be like milk so add a little at a time till you get that consistency. People have also told me to use windex to thin it out but I have never used it.

Thanks guys. Now if I can find some cheap blanks to play with I'll be set.
