I am not sure what type of paint Duracoat is, however I used acrylic lacquer, it worked fine

I did not try, but I think it is a good idea. It should work, since the paint will probably not disturb/change, e.g. the thickness of the material. Good luck!

Not designed for paint... matter of fact, the manual expressly advises to avoid using paint in system as it will clog the pump and nozzle. Buy a real paint sprayer.

You can. There's a little bent straw in the paint well that feeds the paint. You need to have enogh paint in the well for the straw to be submerged in paint when painting above you.

It's doable but it's not simple to get all the bubbles out. You'll want a hair dryer, a syringe, and a backup painting in case you screw up, and a practice painting to mess up beforehand.

Yes. But you MUST follow the directions for cleaning afterwards. LOTS of water thru the unit, use the solution that comes with it and remove and clean every part that is removable and clean those as well. This sprayer is a great time saver and will last and last if cared for properly. Any paint left will dry up, become impossible to clean and you will have ruined it. We have even used deck stain. Can't say it enough - clean clean clean. And as another person said - proper tip. Also very powerful sprayer so use caution as it can literally slice through skin.

It is made from PVC material, but it has a very smooth surface. So yes, I would think you could paint it but be deliberate about it. If it were me, I would use an oil based primer and a high quality outdoor paint. Benjamin Moore has a waterborne alkyd paint called "Advance" that I think would be good, if they can provide it in a color you like. Anyway, when I say good quality paint I'm not talking about stuff you can buy at Home Depot. All this might be overkill, but I think it is worth being deliberate on surfaces like this outdoors.

I painted over this with Benjamin Moore enamel paint since I was refinishing a piece of furniture, but I can't see why you couldn't paint over it with acrylic paint...

You can paint it, but it would void the warranty. As far as the type of paint to use I would contact a local paint store.

Yes you can use Duracoat and Ceracoat. I use both quite frequently. You will have to thin the mixture a little more than recommended, however it will not affect the finished product. I have done several firearms since I purchased this airbrush kit and all have turned out great! Some applications are nearly a year old, on firearms that are carried daily and there has been no issues with holster wear or knicks.

No.... it can only project through a transparent medium. You can 'sketch' your painting into a line art, print THAT on transparent film, and then draw the design on the wall. You'd then have to repaint, of course. Muralists do it all the time. Try it!

you could, but the spray pattern is not desirable from any of the nozzles supplied. I would use an air brush or some other made for spray painting method. Glen

I haven't tried to, but I think it'll depend on what type of paint you put on it. I've honestly never seen "painted" holds. I've seen plastic holds that are already colored, not painted.I'd rather keep them the way they are. They look more real and fun this way.

Don't use any of the paints it comes with. Buy quality paints (masters touch) etc...

I am sure you can paint any thing if you have the right primer and paint for the surface. Ask the paint store for the right products.

I just used it with Duracoat over the weekend. It worked fine except being my first time using one of these guns, I sprayed on too thin of material/too much air, so the paint dried before hitting the surface. I was trying to be a little careful, but I might need to redo the Duracoat now. Lesson learned, get the right air/material mixture.

looking at the picture of the paashe h I'd say yes. I put different colors in 10 bottles and only use it maybe once a week Just shake it up or stir it before use and to help keep my air gun clean between paints I use thinner to make sure all paint is gone, you can use water but I found paint stayed behind sometimes.
