Its ability to enhance paint flow and reduce tip dry makes the painting process more efficient and enjoyable. While it may require some initial experimentation to get the mix just right, the results are well worth the effort.

I bought this flow improver along with Vallejo’s black primer, and it’s been a great addition to my airbrush setup. It helps keep the airbrush lubricated and really reduces the risk of clogs or blockages during use. I always add a bit to the cup before the paint, and it definitely improves performance. Just be careful not to over-thin, as it can affect coverage. Used properly, it makes airbrushing much more consistent and hassle-free. Highly recommended for anyone using an airbrush regularly.

This in my honest opinion is a must have for every serious scale modeler/miniature airbrush artist/hobbyist. Even airbrush ready paints need thinning or at least I haven't ever found a brand that doesn't benefit from thinning. Not only does this product thin your paint but it extends the work time of the paint too keeping it flowing better for longer. I wouldn't airbrush without adding this along with a few drops of distilled water or thinner. For every four pipette drops of paint I add one drop of this and a drop of distilled water/thinner -generally as all paints are different thicknesses and a strict ratio can't be followed. If you don't believe me or think I may be exaggerating this also comes in a smaller bottle (this is how I first tried it out) grab some then you can thank me. I haven't looked back! Excellent stuff, also have a look at Vallejo Airbrush Thinner as a great companion for those thicker paints that don't come pre thinned for the airbrush. Like I say there is no point in me giving out ratios as all paints are different from pot to pot. i.e. my Citadel Air Mephiston Red is a tad thicker than the Citadel Air Fire Dragon Bright and therefore require different thinning ratios however whatever your ratio I always try and use half of the dilution Vallejo Airbrush Flow Improver and my other thinning medium be it distilled water or Vallejo Airbrush Thinner, just as a note Lifecolor Acrylic Thinner is another good thinner to add to this Vallejo Airbrush Flow Improver.Brilliant product.

Great product. Great price. Quick delivery

I was struggling with my airbrushes clogging up even though I was using paints designed for airbrushes, I was previously watering them down with tap water which I learnt was not actually helping, so I decided to give this a try.Whilst my airbrush still clogs it takes over double the time before it starts to become an issue, this has been a huge help for when I have lots to airbrush as I dont have to stop as much to clean out the clogs and saves me a lot of time.This doesn't seem to effect the finish of the paints I use, which are the Jacquard airbrush color paints. The flow improver also helps to mix the colours easier if I need a custom colour.

Great

Works really well. Even use it for thinner Humbrol paints - especially those in the starter kits.Works fine though both of my brushesRecommended 👍
