Is there a way to actually AirBrush on vinyl. I Know the Krylon spray paint method for fades & simple things like that. But for the more difficult airbrushing jobs like you would do with paint????
Thank You,
Paul V

hmmm.i think airbrushing on vinyl would be like painting on a hard surface..so turn your air pressure down...and regular createx will work...or you can use auto-air createx..

I like using vinyl screen printing inks, have also had great results with automotive lacquers in spray cans (spray into a cup, thin a little more, run through the airbrush) and automotive urethanes work great too.

You can also coat with 'tycote' enamel receptive clear.
Or even spray Krylon clear on, then airbrush.
(do this BEFORE weeding)

This has been brought up on posts on & off several times over the past few years, with some good varying results.
