 From:  BILL WHITLEY 
I use Floquil paint strained and thinned ( 1 thinner : 4 paint )
Max pressure 20 - 25 lbs. Badger 150 with bottle.
Max distance 4 inches. Usually 1 to 2 inches or less.
One ounce bottle paints roughly 2 maybe 3 1/35th scale armor
models one color completely.

Canned air - no good. Pressure regulator / water trap vital
to good consistent results.
