Frequently Asked Question
Flow improver reduces the surface tension of acrylic paint, helping it flow more smoothly through the airbrush and reducing tip dry — the build-up of dried paint at the nozzle tip that interrupts spraying.
Add a small amount — typically a few drops per amount of paint. Too much reduces pigment density and can affect coverage. Start with a 10% flow improver to 90% thinned paint ratio and adjust to taste.
No — airbrush thinner reduces paint viscosity. Flow improver reduces surface tension and improves flow without thinning as aggressively. Many painters use both together.
Yes — flow improver can be added to brush paints to improve blending and extend drying time, though it is most commonly used for airbrushing.
Yes — hobby airbrush flow improvers are compatible with all water-based acrylic paint brands including Warhammer Colour, Vallejo, Army Painter, and all others.
