What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
Listing details are inconsistent: the title and colour field describe 16 colours plus two thinners and 20 ml bottles, while the size field says 1.11 ml per bottle in a pack of 18 and the total volume is listed as 360 Millilitres. Waterproof is listed as True but water resistance is also listed as Not Water Resistant. The set contents field names acrylic, brush and paper, while the product description identifies paint and thinner. Confirm the selected listing’s bottle size and included components before buying. The maker recommends 1–2 drops of thinner per 10 drops of paint below 20 L/min airflow, says it can be sprayed directly at 20–23 L/min, and advises not exceeding a thinner-to-paint ratio of 1:3. The airbrush itself is not included.

Customer feedback highlights the colour selection, variety, compatibility and smooth spraying, including a mention of use on 3D printer parts. Reports on thickness and drying time are mixed, with some finding the paint easy to clean and others saying it is too thick to use undiluted. Durability comments are also mixed. For fine airbrush work, the included thinner and the maker’s airflow guidance may be useful, but users should allow for possible adjustment rather than assume every bottle sprays as supplied.
Positive themes
- Customers praise the colour selection and variety.
- Feedback mentions compatibility and smooth spraying.
Negative themes
- Some customer feedback describes the paint as too thick to use by itself.
Mixed feedback
- Drying time and durability receive mixed feedback.
Frequently asked questions
Does the set include an airbrush?
No. The supplied product information says the airbrush shown for demonstration is not included.
How should the paint be adjusted for lower airflow?
The maker recommends adding 1–2 drops of thinner to 10 drops of paint when compressor airflow is below 20 L/min. It says direct spraying is suitable at 20–23 L/min and advises keeping thinner at or below a 1:3 ratio to paint.
Which surfaces are listed for use?
The details list ceramic, fabric, metal, paper, plastic and wood. The manufacturer also describes use on canvas and other craft surfaces, but suitability can depend on the material and preparation.
Are the bottle size and water resistance clear?
No. The listing gives conflicting volume details and labels the paint both True for waterproof and Not Water Resistant. Check the selected listing details if either point matters.
