HI, I have a question, if the n00bness bothers you, don't answer

.
I'm gonna buy an airbrsuh from a good friend and I was wondering if I can use the bottled Tamiya paints? I have too many bottled Tamiya paints, and I don't wanna buy new ones, so can I use them?

yes they can be used, you may have to thin them down though.

Just buy thinner
I've been using those for my gundam models

anyway here's the ratio:
4% Thinner
96% Paint

Enjoy!
