Greeting fellow pigment pushers.
The case foam for my very old Paasche VSR90#2 has deteriorated quite a lot. Sadly, I had to toss it, as it was coming apart. I now need to come up with some new foam for the airbrush and its accessories. They deserve better than just jostling around in the plastic case. Cutting a rectangular shape seems easy enough. I assume there is some source for a proper foam that matches the thickness required.
Is there a good way to create a new foam insert for the plastic case? My tests with a razor did not turn out well. Has anyone here created new foam inserts? I notice that some lucky folks are getting their hands on really great, classic airbrushes, and assume someone may have refinished a box or created a new foam insert. Are some foams better suitable than others?
Any tricks, videos, or howtos? Any advice is truly appreciated.
