Air Brush Use?

Hi

Has anyone tried using an air brush for touching up paint or recoloring seats or interiors?

An air brush doesn't work very well with metallic paints - it goes on too dry, the metal flakes just don't lay out very well. Air brush should work fine for leather dye if you can get it to spray. A Preval Sprayer works well on leather dye, again if you get the dye thin enough. I thin SEM Sure Coat about 15 percent with distilled water and it works fine, although a bit prone to run.
