Hi

I was curious to know what nozzle/needle sizes are used when spraying the tri german camo. I have always had trouble with my Iwata with a .23 n/n size and Tamiya XF with their acrylic thinner.I have gone thru all the regular checks ie: air pressure, more thinning etc. I will have to try the lacquer thinner.

Since the gaianotes thinner cannot be had here in the states. I wonder if any of the lacquer thinners made for the auto body or woodworking industries would be a better? or a less expensive alternative? I am a woodworker by trade and have several different cans of lacquer thinner all with different formulas depending on the type of catalyzed lacquer that I spray regularly. I guess I will just have to experiment.

Steve
