going to the hobby shop to pick up some carpeting material. pics of flatbrush.

PerfAdv - Red and Blue pigments are hard to clean, but can easily be cleaned with about 10 or so drops of Testors or KK thinner(availble a Wal-Mart)(not that KK thinner does not thin enamels, but it seems to work stronger than Testors thinner when cleaning). Since you said the testors brushes aren't that great(thats what i use), but is their widebrush good enough?


Henk4 - tips on how to get enamel paints better flowing?(the heating method will not work this time, for enamels are flammable)
