Can you use an Airbrush On .... ?Can you use an airbrush on T-shirts? These are some common questions I have been getting... So let's clear something up! ANY AIRBRUSH CAN BE USED ON ANY SURFACE!! (sorry, I didn't mean to yell - that was supposed to be excitement) Some airbrush manufacturers market their airbrushes for specific uses ... for example, an airbrush with a really small paint cup might be marketed as a "nail art airbrush" ... ... but that does not mean that you can't use it for any other purpose! Simply, some airbrushes are better suited for certain application - but the basic principle of the tool is exactly the same. Let me use an analogy to explain... There are many sizes of paint brushes, right? There are really tiny ones best used for painting models or fine lines, and there are large paint brushes that can be used to paint your house. There is no rule that says you CAN'T use the teeny tiny paint brush to paint your house ... it might take a while... it might be frustrating at times (ok - so the whole time) but it would get the job done ... right? And visa versa with the big brush... The same applies to airbrushes. Some airbrushes are better suited to the task at hand but their function is ultimately the same. If you think that you may like to use your airbrush for multiple uses (i.e nail art, murals, and fine art say) try to get an airbrush that is really versatile - a medium sized brush - something all purpose. If you plan to speciallize (i.e. only nail art) then buy one that is well suited to that which has a smaller paint cup.
