Airbrush Help Wet coats

[joelo59]

I searched a little but I didnt find the right answer. Im having problems with my wet coats. I have a Tamiya double action airbrush and when I do the wet coats I have to get really really close to achieve this because of the fine spraying of the it. Is easier for me to get good wet coats sraying directly from spray cans but I dont like them, because of the control or paint flow. Can sombody recomment a wide spraying airbrush, mainly for bodies. I went to Iwata and there are so many that I dont know what to buy.

Many airbrushes made by Iwata, Badger, Paasche have the ability to use different nozzles for higher flow.

If you're looking for an excellent airbrush for model cars that seems geared towards a higher-flow for painting bodies, the Badger 175 Crescendo can't be beat. It comes in a kit w/three (fine, medium, heavy) flow nozzles...medium and heavy work quite well at laying down a good wet coat on a body...the fine tip really isn't all that fine. But it's a killer workhorse airbrush that can do everything but the very fine line details, and you can find them very inexpensive ordering from the internet. You can probably use just the medium and never look back, and that's one you can get pretty inexpensively.
