thinned down food coloring throught he airbrush and why it has to be special made airbrush colors? It is because the alcohol will evaporate too quickly and clog the brush??

I was always told that and the actual paint particles are coarser grain and can clog the needle.

if you can put luster dust through it I am sure that is courser than the regular colors .... hmm ... I knowhow to take my airbrush apart I may just mixup the color with the alcohol really well and just see what happens.
