    We used to call those "freak drops" when we were spraying them on custom vans in the mid seventies...

    Is thats how they accomplish this look by blowing the spot with air?[/quote]


    Yup. You thin down the paint a little and the air from the airbrush just spreads the paint out. On a vertical surface you tend to get a little extra spray to the downside. On a horizontal surface the bursts tend to be more uniform and symmetrical.
