Paint Filters?

Post by zysurge »

Anyone know a good online source for some kind of filter to be used to strain paint before putting it in my airbrush? I remember seeing something once, but haven't had any luck tonight finding it.

Thanks,
Eric

Just use pantyhose. Better yet, use the kind that come in the nice styrene egg, two birds with one dollar, and all that.

Thanks, I was just wondering this. But I'm a bachelor and now have to withstand the funny looks at the store when I go buy a pair of pantyhose. :P

Might as well pick up some clear nail polish while you're there, and some emory boards. As long as they're going to look at you funny, blow them a kiss on the way out.

:lol: I like it.

What's clear nail polish good for - a gloss coat?
