Can you spray with cans or just with air brush

I use cans as well as an airbrush, just keep the coats light and be prepared to replace the thin white pre-filter more often.

There is a dial to adjust the pressure of air flow which will affect the spray stream. You can also press light or firm on the actual airbrush button as you spray for fine spraying or strong spraying.

A can of air works a lot easier. Just make sure to take it outside when you clean it or else dust will get everywhere.

I actually just got mine to work after a lot of research. Someone posted in a review that you must keep some space between the paint jar and the airbrush. That little niche where you attach the brush and jar? Dont put in the jar all the way. Another thing, is that if the can is too cold (from extended use), you must warm it up to get it to spray at a proper pressure. DO NOT heat up the can too much, just run its bottom under ot water for 2 - 3 seconds, or warm water for like 3 - 5. I actually just keep the can in my lap for warmth - it extends the amount of spraying i can do before the can becomes too cold.

I bought only one can and did not like the way it worked and pretty much simply wasted the effort. The can is pressurized aerosol can with a nozzle on it . . . I saw no need for any special equipment to deploy the product. Then, I have no intention of buying any more of this product. Several people indicated these expanding pressurized products could be detrimental to the structure where applied . . . so do be careful.

If the paint is fresh (just purchased) no need to thin or strain it. Spray right from the can.

Unlike high pressure sprayers that can suck the paint right from the can, HVLP sprayers require paint to be diluted (thinned) with water. So, while wall painting can be done, you might need more coats than you would with a roller. Also, you would have to do more masking to keep overspray from hitting things you don't want paint on.

Sorry I cannot say if it would work as an air can, I was trying to use it to spray 10wt oil and it didn't work at all for that.

According to the instructions u can use a paint spray but I know that I didn't use a spray. I did the old fashion paint roller and the layers of paint was the same as if the additives wasn't in the paint

I prefer using the single action air brush. I have a double action that works fine it just requires thinning where with the single action I can usually get good results without the thinning. I have used enamels and water based for model cars through both.

Okay ... don't hold me to this, but I don't see why not. The mechanism is just a simple lever which pushes down the nozzle for you. It doesn't interfere with the nozzle mechanism, just how it gets pressed. As long as the top of the plasti dip can is configured like most spray cans ... the round raised metal circle for the Can Gun to grip on, you should be fine.

Short Answer: YES Long answer: Aerosol from can is fairly smelly and not healthy so vent the room if you use a lot of cans. Also it (just like silly string) comes out feeling "wet" and will put a wet looking stain on paint/drywall so I wouldn't use it indoors.

Hello Justin :) Yes! Absolutely... The problem with a can of any spray, is it takes a few seconds to get the nozzle pointed in the right direction, and then when you actually spray, you have NOTHING to aim with but the spray itself as it exits the can. This nice little gun lets you know exactly which direction you are pointing your spray, and works excellent when determining how to aim you spray. Also, the trigger is very easy to pull and continue to pull until the can is empty is you so desire. I highly recommend it and the price is excellent! Good luck.... :)

I believe you can. I've not done it but you are supposed to be able to use it with stains and thinner material but you need a special spray tip and a lower spray setting.

According to video and instruction you can spray automotive paint, if you purchase optional needle. I have not personally tried spraying this type of paint.

Tried to paint with a brush, it does not work the holes are so small the paint fills in.Supposedly you can spray but I did not try.

yes, but I wouldn't recomend. I would use a control spray, which is to be used only with oil base paints.
