    Mr Color Aquaous, any good!

    Afternoon, has anybody got any experience of using this especially brush painting?

    Might try it as brushed on and Mr color for spraying

        I haven’t painted large areas with Mr. Aqueous Color, but for the smaller things I did paint with it, it worked well enough.

          Bob mr aqueous are some of the best paints out there fantastic through the airbrush and its fine to use the mr colour thinners or the self leveling thinners never really used them with a brush only to highlight nuts and bolts chips and scratches etc though I do use mr hobby aqueous thinner with the aqueous paints keeping the others for mr hobby lacquer paints believing that mr hobby aqueous thinner is made to get the best from aqueous paints

              I found that it was very thick paint and needed to be thinned down for brush painting work. A bit like using Tamiya paint. Preferred to use pure acrylic. Awesome for airbrush though.
