Airbrush paint reducer
I'm an absolute beginner to airbrushing, so pardon my ignorance. I purchased a set of airbrush paints through Amazon. They are acrylic airbrush paints, but they are not Createx and supposedly are "ready to spray". However, I figured it would still probably be best to use a reducer to thin them out a little bit. My question is, which reducer should I use? I see Createx has multiple reducers (4011, 4012, 4013), so I'm not sure if I should use a specific one or if any of them will work? Also, the description for the Createx reducers mentions Createx paints, but I'm assuming that even if my paints are not Createx, as long as they are acrylic I can still use the Createx reducer...just wondering if my assumption is correct or if the reducer is specifically formulated for Createx paints?

70% distilled water, 30% isopropyl alcohol, 5 drops of glycerin per ounce. Keep in mind if you use 70% isopropyl alcohol, that is already 30% water. Adjust accordingly.
This is my paint thinner and cleaner for my airbrushes. Works amazing for me. I only use water based paint.
