NEW CREATEX 4021 REDUCER REVIEW. THE ANSWER TO TIP DRY

[@louisliguore7199]

Great review, I have a large supply of 4011 that I have to run thru before I can get the 4021. Thanks!

Interesting use of the Mendez texture stencils--when you did the layer of black it really added a lot of depth. Spraying candies over this would be even better. Sometimes I lightly mist areas with pearl pigments as well. I recently got a bottle of the 2021 reducer but haven't used it enough to say if I like it or not...I'm used to using distilled water for reducing all my water-based paints--E'tac, Createx, Aqua Flow, and Medea/Comart. Tonight I'm going to be using my new H & S 2024 Evolution CRPlus solow/ the new 0.28 mm needle/nozzle that just arrived yesterday. I'll also be using the new 4021 reducer w/ Createx Illustration opaque white as well as Candy2O colors....on black paper card stock and envelopes. Time to paint now...

Thank you my friend 😃❤️👍 please let me know how you like your new evolution 2024? I use to have an infinity but so disliked the trigger response. I hear that the new evolution 2024 model has a beautiful trigger response and has a .28 mm needle. Such a beautiful looking brush

Yo! What’s happening, thank you for sharing your experience with this new reducer. I saw Spray Gunner advertise this product. They showed how to reduce/mix the paint but did not demonstrate on the video how it reduced tip dry.

[@colinbeachey196]

Thanks 😃👍 yes I wanted to share my experience in the use of this new reducer. I don’t know the technicals of this product and I hope that createx themselves will produce some new videos to discuss the finer details of 4021.

Acrylics will never be like lacquers…the latter spraying with no tip dry properly thinned…but the respirator, spray booth, etc…I’ll pass except for my most demanding airbrush requirement as 1/72 model aircraft Luftwaffe mottling.

[@colinbeachey196]

@@NorthernNevadan-x2k oh yes laquers and solvent is the best. I use to thin down different colours of Tremclad which is a one stage enamel rust paint and it was the best spray ever , no tip dry. I think for anyone working in the acrylic application this reducer foresure is one of the best we have seen so far 😃👍👍

Got mine from spray gunner,I still got tip dry some reason

[@colinbeachey196]

I used an iwata hpcs eclipse and there was little to no tip dry. But the hpcs has a .35 mm needle and tip. I’m sure it might be different with my micron. I think it will still tip dry depending on temperature , humidity etc. I was happy to be able to spray white paint for an hour and only have to remove a very slight amount. lol usually when I mix createx illustration paint with water I have to remove tip dry every 10 seconds lol

[@colinbeachey196]

I think one of the tricks is to let it sit for 10-15 minutes before spraying

4011 is junk, 4021 is even superior to the ole reliable, 4012.

[@airbrushdungeon]

But does it come with longer drying time? I use a lot of masking techniques.

[@colinbeachey196]

I found it dried fairly normal as it would with 4020, or 4013.

[@johnleonard974]

It’s ok still tip dry

[@colinbeachey196]

True it is. I liked that I had to wipe off such a small bit of tip dry only once within a time span of an hour opposed to every 40-60 seconds when mixed with distilled water. It’s been a game changer forsure
