Airbrush Advice

[jcam54]

Looking for a good starter airbrush kit...my wife wants to paint up some bodies, so I thought this would be a good thing to get her instead of rattle cans. Shoot this is the first time she has wanted to be involved in the hobby so I want to get her something that will help and keep her interested. Please post up links if you can.

Thanks for the help guys!

I have 2 bottom feeders and they are just a PITA. Get a gravity feed one. This airbrush is the best I have ever laid my hands on so far and cheaper then the Badger Professional 150 that I have (almost by half).

Good Luck. Have fun!

I second NLMD,
Definitely an Iwata HP-CS, I steal my brothers and use it for painting, it is definitely a slick unit.
Iwata HP-CS
That looks to be a decent deal.
What do you plan on using for a compressed air source?

just be careful that the mrs doesnt get a look at any receipts from the LHS fellas, could mean trouble :jamout:

Your def going to want to get a dual stage air brush. I use a bottom feeder all the time which works great for me. Never had a problem with it. It also has an attachment to be a gravity feed but never used it. I have not used it a lot but have done quite a few simple body's which can be done by a rattle can but the air brush gives much nicer even coats.

nothing like having a wife that wants to custom paint rc bodies for you, what a lucky man!!! lol

Get an Iwata gravity feed fual action. I have used the Iwata Eclipse for years. Its about a hundred bucks.
