Hey Guys,
I've always wanted an airbrush setup and finally had a chance to get one this past weekend. I got scammed into a crappy Aztek airbrush. It did what I wanted it to, but cleanup simply sucked and it never really comes truly clean. It feels cheezy and the color cups don't allow a full cleaning either. Its just not multiple color friendly.
I should of got an Iwata like my gut told me, but I was in a hurry so I'm paying the price.
So, now I'm on the hunt for a nice airbrush and accessories. It seems like the Iwata's are the best, but I can't seem to find much info on them. So, I'll list what I'm after and hopefully you experts can help.
I'd like a gun that can spray a large area if I need to paint most of the body 1 color, but Id also like to be able to do small details when needed.
My biggest concern is being able to purchase separate hoppers, or be able to quickly and efficiently clean them so I can use multiple colors. My free time is very limited due to my work, so having to spend alot of time just to swap colors has proven to be difficult.
On a side note, I purchased some faskolor paints as I was told they were the best for the airbrush. I was told it doesn't need to be thinned, but I call B/S on this as it shoots like crap through my current gun. What do you guys use for thinning agents?
Thanks a bunch for your help, I'm looking to purchase a new one asap.
