Hello,

I recently got a hold of vallejo metallic colours paints and vallejo metallic air for my airbrush. However, I am struggling with how much the paints need to be thinned, if at all. The results for now are relatively satisfactory, but I get spiderwebbing too often for my liking. What is the ratio people thin their metallics, including the ones that are from the 'regular' vallejo lines like model colour and game colour?

The bigger bottles vallejo metal color go through just fine without thinning imo. A little water can be added but I don't love it tbh. I found messing around with the pressure gave better results for me, maybe try that
