So, I think I'm going to jump back into airbrushing and I have quite a few of the Vallejo Model Air paints. I remember when I was using them that my airbrush always seem to clog. Any noob tips to help mitigate that? Some kind of flow improver? Thanks |

Vallejo flow improver has been my go to secret sauce to, kind of obviously, improve the flow of acrylics. I add two drops directly into the cup and away we go. Works great especially for when I want to use VMC or GW paints. |

thin them .I use Tamiya all the time and I always thin then by another 25% of volume with demineralised wat, and then very seriously stuff. |

Supposedly, the Model Air paints come pre-thinned for airbrushing. |

But if they still clog your brush, a bit more thinning won't hurt. Plus it depends on nozzle size too. |
