Hi,
I have just purchased my first air brush. (Badger 200) This is a single action air brush. My question is about thinners. For enamels (specifically, this first use will be Humbrel paint) does it matter which thinner I use. Do I need to buy expensive hobby store Disol or equivalent - or- can I use the hardware store orderless(?) paint thinners? Are enamel paints purchased at hobby stores that much different from oil based enamels puchased at paint or big box stores?
Sorry if these questions are so basic, but I HATE to paint and so I have never learned the basics of model painting.
