Best Liquid Mask product?
I'm thinking of ordering and using Bittydesign liquid mask. Is there a better choice available today for RC bodies?

Thanks!

Bitty design works good but only with water based paints. Chemical based paint seem to react with it and it doesn't peel off then. Proline is also very easy to work with but I have only used it with water base paint as well.

Thanks! Looks like it's sold out everywhere, possibly out of production.
Thanks for the reply. The video shows them using it for lexan bodies though:

absolutely not Spaz Stix unless you enjoy pain and suffering.
Also most airbrush paints for rc bodies are waterbased Acrylic. It's the spray cans you need to worry about.

Consistency is the key I keep misplacing.

Wow, that's why the abrupt disappearance.Frankentruck wrote: ↑Mon Nov 13, 2023 7:54 pmIt is out of production. The factory literally burned down.GreenBar0n wrote: ↑Mon Nov 13, 2023 7:51 pmThanks! Looks like it's sold out everywhere, possibly out of production.
I'll be brushing this Bittydesign Liquid Mask on, unless there is an affordable airbrush kit worth recommending that I should purchase.
I'm using Tamiya poly carbonate spray paints, entirely throughout.
Any more guidance you can give me, I'd appreciate.

Re: Best Liquid Mask product?
What about this airbrush kit? Is there a better one in this price range?

Re: Best Liquid Mask product?
Just ordered the Pro-Line. Thanks! Do you use this with a brush or air brush?

Re: Best Liquid Mask product?
Something like this?
https://www.amazon.com/TCP-Global-Touch-Up-Spray-Regulator/dp/B00377535U
Would you say that's better for liquid mask/RC paint, than the airbrush kit above?
What compressor do you use?
Thanks!

Re: Best Liquid Mask product?
I use this air compressor https://www.amainhobbies.com/paasche-d500-compressor-w-r75-regulator-pasd500sr/p35280
And I have been using this airbrush.

And I just use a full size compressor for the mini hvlp.

Re: Best Liquid Mask product?
Would you say in your experience that the airbrush, or the mini-HVLP gun, would be best for RC bodies? Thanks @mikea96 !mikea96 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 14, 2023 8:03 am I use this air compressor https://www.amainhobbies.com/paasche-d500-compressor-w-r75-regulator-pasd500sr/p35280
