Well thank ya!!! Hey pwn what kind of air brush is that?

Its an Iwata Neo cn Gravity fed dual action airbrush. Its my first airbrush and I really like it, probably since I dont have any experience to compare it to haha. But the build quality is superb and was only $70 dollars! I already had an air compressor so I only had to buy the airbrush and the 10' braided air hose.

Okay thanks pwn, this helped a lot! I've been looking at buying an airbrush for a few months now, except i had no idea what i was looking for. At the moment, it's a little out of my price range but i'll definitely keep it in mind! Oh and one more question, do you use a mini compressor?

[pwnStar]

Naw I have it hooked up to a big tank 250 psi compressor, but I dial down the pressure to between 20 and 40 psi. Boards and I talked a lot about pressure and he is suggesting I use 20, where Ive been using 30 psi with mixed results.

[DoDo]

Alrighty, Thanks pwn that will definitely come in handy to know!

These are my airbrushes.


Left of the top : no brand 0.4 mm trigger type, about $30. for undercoat (primer and sund dune).
Left of the bottom : wave 0.4 mm trigger type, about $75. for wide area(car body, etc).
Right of the top : Mr hobby 0.4 mm double action with air flow control, about $ 120. Main airbrush.
Right of the bottom : Mr hobby 0.2 / 0.4 mm sucking up type about $30 (This is a starter set with gas bottle) for checking (mixed color, thickness).

I will try couple of his techniques.

[Hint Mint]

COPY Part.

I lost part of model I tried copy part because I had spare part.


1. bond plastic stick to the original part.
2. make wall bank with blocks.
3. Inject a silicon inside wall bank.
4. 8 hours later, remove the wall. Take out the original part with cutter.
5. Inject a polyurethane resin into the silicon mold.
6. few hours later. It's done! I can copy this part so many times until mold broke.

anyone need this part? ;-)
