As yet no one has tested and commented on the remarkably inexpensive air brushes at harbor freight.

I am very interested in Gartside glaze and use it often and would really like to share testing with others. Going to investigate a bit and see if anyone else is interested in starting a discussion group on this network to share results. I talked to Brian Gartside by email a couple of years ago and he was very interested in seeing anything I came up with.
Hi Juli,
Look forward to keeping in touch. Being in Australia I'm usually the only one on-line.
merry Xmas to you.
