Actually, tonight I took the automotive clear coat off with a liquid stripper and cleaned her up with steel wool. As expected, chemical stripper doesn't touch Duracoat. The steel wool had the additional benefit of cleaning up some of the imperfections in the finish caused by too much pressure on the airbrush.

Yesterday I installed a regulator on the compressor so the airbrush can be run at the propper psi. I'm feeling good about this.

Stay tuned. First blue coat tonight.

Above: after two coats of the new blue.

Next: maybe three maybe four coats of Duracoat gloss.

Oh, yeah, the handle has been painted the same color as requested.

My new airbrush rocks. I'm very pleased with the results.

That duracoat stuff sticks to everything... the handle of mine was also painted (it's plastic) and it is the same color... looks great!
