Airbrushes

[Mtxzptlk]

Paashe VL six year old brush, treated it well and it treats me as well although i'm looking to upgrade soon.

Unfortunately it sounds like my compressor is starting to show signs that it might die soon so, i might have to look into getting a new comp before upgrading the airbrush. Nevertheless good brush that VL only paid $54 for the set. best bang for buck!!

Steve, These are my Air Brushes
I would recomend the Iwata Kustom TH due to it's 'Fan' Nozzle but it's quite expensive and rare in the UK, depending on the compressor you have maybe the DeVilbiss SRi Spray Gun which I have been using for my 2K Clear Coats before I got the Kustom TH

Thanks for the advice Steve.I really appreciate it.I have been looking at something similar to the DeVilbiss,although it's a different make.I'm not sure my compressor could power it.It goes up to 80 ps.i,but does not store much air in reserve.I think the larger type mini sprayguns would probably use up the air faster than my compressor could make it.Maybe I should bite the bullet and look to upgrade my compressor as well!

Ok, don't kill the newbie, but I did search and am really looking for more of a personal response from you all.

I want A airbrush. But I know not what kind.

I want to:
Paint anything I will need, even fine/small pieces.
Be able to do bodies.
Have dual action.
Want the best quality

So, which kind?
What kind of compressor?

Sorry to hijack, but this thread has been really helpful so far!

THanks
