Cheers John  . Yes that primer is bloody good indeed and I shall change Vallejo to this in the future. Todays update for yaz; masking, masking, masking and a drop of Verda Oliva Scuro  .    This needs to cure till tomorrow now, then I'll get the VMS liquid mask out and mask off the green camo mottles |

Steve, thank you ole chap . The mottle will be along tomorrow, promised . Joe, appreciated kindly . Marco, cheers my bro . Yes, a half drop , it's very precise measurement and to get it right you need a toothpick with half a pointed end (lengthwise)  |

Boots-meister cheers dude . I used a 0.5mm nozzle at about 1.5bar pressure without thinning. How did you try it? |

Can`t really remember mate.......t`was a long time ago. Defo not thru a 0.5 needle that's for sure........i don`t have one..........as for pressure, possibly a slightly higher pressure but not much  |

They recommend a 0.5mm nozzle or larger Boots, maybe that is why it didn't spray well.

Get a cheapo AB like I have, they work bloody wonderful for me . The primer was only €10 cheaper than the last AB I bought |

Was tempted to get a replacement larger needle and seat for my Iawata HP-CS Eclipse if they do one Have been tempted with another AB as well tho............Greenstuff World ones look ok |

Those Greenstuff AB's are Fengda, they are what I use all the time. I bought one years ago with 3 nozzles. The idea was that being cheap, if they didn't work then lesson learned, but they work bloody good. I got a Harder and Steenbeck AB, but it just will not do what I want it to, just shows that not all expensive stuff is always good |

A scotch that has certainly been well earned.
Mighty fine camo work and much better than the decals for sure.
