  2. Hi Bullet101, As beginner i would recommend you get Tamiya Spray works Airbrush. I have this and it works great as single action airbrush. The only problem is that it runs with 7.2 volts battery or adapter for direct supply. The battery runs for almost 25mins countinously but you will never use it countinously like that. Cleaning is simple and this kit comes with everything you need to start with it (Airbrush gun , compressor, 2 size nozzles, screw on paint container which is huge). Yes it has tendency of "pulsing" air supply since its direct sourse of air but you dont have to worry about it

I used Testors paint thinner and layed down misty layers of coats and gave them 24+hrs between each coat to dry before i applied another coat, with xtracolor its longer process but if you are paitient enough you will be pleased with the results. As for aligator
  5. Hi Daniel, I had somewhat similar problem with my recent project of Pepsi Concorde, i had painted Trimclad white on the wings about a year ago, now few weeks back i clear coated it with Future and then disaster struck!, once future dried out it dident gaved to me smooth gloss finish, instead i had rippled matt finish!. After couple days i started to fine sand clear coat with waterie 12000 grit sanding cloth from LMG paint polishing kit, but paint started to crack at 3 different spots and decals started to crack also!.
