Default Airbrush!

http://www.morfars.dk/rc/tilbeh-airb...ml?language=en

I have heard from a experienced painter that this is the best starter-kit on the market.. You have to buy all the items you can see on the page, and when that is done you have a very very good starter-kit.. The price is low too! I am definetly going to have a set..

What do you think?

same here.. I have not seen that. It looks to me like an iwata knock off personally. I have a badger, a little no namer and an iwata. And the iwata is no comparison.. there is NO subsitute. And trust me, it does make a difference. This is the one that I got. It is their lower end brush but I am very happy with it regardless. http://www.iwata-medea.com/products/...hpbcs_info.jsp

And if you want to be a big dog you can go for this one. It is the ultimate for fine details. http://www.iwata-medea.com/products/...cplus_info.jsp

What is a good air pressure to use for spraying? I have the first gun you listed, and I'm just learning.

For spraying i stay around 35 psi give or take the type of paint and how fine of a line to spray

I would recommend getting a shop grade(smaller version) compressor that has auto shut off and small storage tanks. then they can be used for the airbrush and cleaning your rig off.

When you buy an airbrush you need to make sure of a couple of things. Parts availability (needles, tips) so when you do drop it it can be repaired and also its useability, You DO want a dual action brush, I recommend the badger 360-7 its a nice all around brush, cup and bottle fed (the head spins 360 degrees around) and the kit comes with 2 bottles and the air hose with canned air capabilities(purchase a black valve from the shop) and also with a compressor. Need any more info please feel free to PM me
