^Sure, I'd buy a paintbrush if I finally have a job. Personally though, I think I'll be sticking with Industrial spray cans for a long while, I still see them as cheap alternatives as compared to paint bottles for airbrushes. Though I can understand why most people would call them investments. But for now, I'm pretty satisfied with what I can work with.I use pylox plus TOA , and I find them in SM and Robinson's most of the time, previously they were just around 120 pesos, but now they've increased to as much as 159 -_-. In desperate situations I use Bosny, with a Mr. Hobby nozzle.
The guys in my sig are painted with Bosny Dark Gray (first time I used the stuff, since I can't find any TOA dark grey anymore), and my usual mix of TOA and Pylox.
Bosny doesn't melt plastic?

so, 2 days ago when I was on my way home from the dorms, I bought my self an MG Gundam Age-01 Normal. So far so good.
I haven't done the skirt and legs since I actidently snap the ball joint for the skirt.
The only bad thing is his fingers. It's not the normal moveable fingers. The only moveable part is his thumb! Dang!
Maybe I'll buy that flexible fingers part that they sell Separately and specially for MG kits.

Nope, Bosny is very safe on plastic, Though the primer is not.
It eats the plastic and if repeatedly applied, makes the plastic weak.
but they released a plastic primer, and that one, is very much safe.
i don't know about toa, or pylox, you could ask Glory star about it

You could see it in Department stores, particularly in ACE hardware shops.
As Glory_star had said.
But if you are looking for bosny, you could get some for 90php in Deovir located 3rd Floor, SM North. you could also get some vallejo paints and supplies there.
paints for Airbrushing and Hand brushing.

uhhh no, bosny paints and primers are aclyric based while toa and pylox are lacquer based so they are safe on plastic, enamel paints are the ones that are corrossive and require being thinned before being used. Those who use enamel paints for painting and panel line washing thin their paints thoroughly or put a gloss coat bfore proceeding with enamel for panel line washing. By the way, bosny primer is widely used by modelers, while ithe plastic one is indeed a good choice for plastic and resin it is also very expensive, and I repeat both are very safe for plastic.
Anyway, in using spray paints wear a mask, spray the part in a fair distance and don't spray on a part full blast. And practice on a dummy kit first.

actually, Bosny is Lacquer based.

bosny: aclyric epoxy,: quick drying lacquer spray
toa : acrylic lacquer
pylox : aerosol lacquer
well whatever, it doesn't change the fact that as long as paints and primers are aclyric or lacquer based they are safe on plastic. Enamel ones are the corrossive stuff, but that doesn 't mean theycan't be used.

So i got my hands on MG Zeta Gundam ver 1.0
This is a very old kit, being released way back in 1996.
but nonetheless, it is still cool.
Plastic is kinda fragile right now, so i dont like to transform it to Waverider Mode.
but anywway, here is the pics.
couldnt help myself to do this one. lol

Looks fat as hell lol. Anyways, I asked around, and someone said that Bosny can destroy the plastic.... The spraying technique to use is different from compared to how we used to spray using Tamiya/Mr.Hobby crap spray paint. True fax gais?

True fax gais?all of my kits are painted in bosny industrial spray cans, so far, i haven't melted/destroyed any of my kits yet.
and yes, spraying/applying it is very different compared to Tamiya cans, since you need to adjust your press to limit the paint that is coming out of the can.
@gahald mills, - lol, Cant help doing it, Next time i'll get an SD, :)

well, you can search for some tutorials in Youtube.
but the way i do it, 12 inches away, spray cans dipped in hot water for 5 mins,
and spray.
- the 1.0 zeta is fat, lol, i agree, might need to get a 2.0 For better proportions.
