I’ve bought a cheap 1/8th inch Compressed Nozzle Blow Gun Air Compressor Dust Spray Trigger that has a hose end nozzle size of 1cm. Does anyone know if I can get an adapter …. Both male ends that go from .8 to 1cm?? Means I can use it with my 1/8” air gun hose. Hope that makes some sense. Thanks

I got the ps289 and im painting a part with vallejo gloss black primer and i just can't seem to get it right. Tried doing it straight from the bottle, trying different mixtures of vallejo airbrush thiner and flow improver, tried messing with the psi and the distance of the airbrush from the part and I've come to the conclusion that I suck at this😅. Does anyone have a guess what im doing wrong?

Im using the vaper duel action gravity airbrush, I got it from work and I dont know much about them. Im running water through it and im holding the air down all the way the whole time in this video. Im using 45 psi, any help? I've already tried cleaning the needle and nozzle with 70% for the needle and 99% for the nozzle isopropyl alcohol

I’m looking to get into airbrushing for custom transformer figures and other miniatures. I don’t have anything beside a respirator and want to be able to paint in my room in the comfort of ac. I have $350-$400 to spend on a set up. Is there any products you would suggest for a beginner? Thanks!

im looking to upgrade my booth and find something just right for my set up and DIY is looking like a good option. besides the fact iv never done anything like this before so im quite lost. all i really know is that I need to get a fan with enough cfm for the dimensions of the booth in order to properly suck out fumes. I want to work with lacquer so i think it has to be pretty strong. I also dont really know how to make the booth itself. I see a lot of boxy ones made out of wood and i can conceptualize making that but i still haven't really found anything that shows off directly how to do that really well, iv also come across a couple designs and like fans on the side or on the top and side. but i mostly see this slant with a fan in a back pretty much what my current one looks like. and i dont know the differences between these designs and what i should do.

so yeah any advice or resources would really help me right now

I'm still new to airbrushing so this has been an experiment with learning various techniques. Masking, using a shield, combining other mediums, etc. Here's a cute design I painted on watercolor paper. Most of it is airbrush with India ink, and some sepia acrylic ink. I used Golden high flow medium to delude the paint for more control over my transparent layers. Also, my pressure gauge is broken so I've been attempting to work based off the sound of the airflow. Not sure if that's practical. Peace!

Has anyone upgraded to the Giraldez Infinity mkii from the Infinity 2024 crplus? I’m tempted by the promise of finer detail work but it’s a decent outlay. I would love to hear from anyone who did the same on if it’s actually a noticeable difference in performance between the two brushes?

Looking to body paint the wife for fun at fantasy fest, what is a good set up to use?

Hello I just got myself a airbrush brush and pressure machine and Holly molly is this a bulky little machine well it’s not big but it’s a lot bigger then I thought one of these things would be my friend owns an airbrush and his is like 15cm in length and width and like 3 cm tall

Edit: The Harder & Steenbeck airbrush doesn't come with a cap, but there are tons of 3D printable files made specifically for this model online. So if you have a 3D printer, you can print one yourself in case you have the same brush.

Hi all. this is my first post so sorry if I get anything wrong.

I was recently gifted my grandmother’s old airbrush and i am having an extremely difficult time getting it to work.

i worked the first time i test it, but that was about it.

Now, every single time i use it the paint wont come out of the nozzle unless i flick the trigger back and forth.

I’ve fully taken the device apart and cleaned it at least 4 separate times in the past 2 days and im kinda lost at what it would be.

I’ve also looked up a number of tutorials and each have recommended the same things (deep cleaning and making sure the needles is actually moving back), both of which i have done.

i have also experimented with different consistency of paint including slightly thicker to just about as thin as water but nothing is working.

The brand is kopykake if that makes any difference , and there is only one air setting that is not labeled so I have no idea the psi nor the year it came out unfortunatemy… but honestly i am just at a loss as to what the issue may be.

Any help is very much appreciated!!

1/28 race body for a buddy..gonna weather the blue I think like the pink.

I’ve tried out air brushing recently and I really liked it! I’ve been thinking of getting my own set and want to buy into something that will make me enjoy the new hobby for miniature painting (40k), I live in an apartment and will be using it on the balcony. Preferably it is an enclosed compressor and I can move it easily anywhere.

Been airbrushing for about 5 months! Trying to switch from cartoon to realism! Second time giving it a shot on shoes/boots

I printed and painted this chonky boy for a friend any pointers? The printer gave me some layer lines and I was kinda ok with some. I took care of some that were really bad and also a split in the body that I sealed up with putty.

Hi there,
i tried to spray 10 small parts of a refurbished turntable with spray paint can.
I didnt work, the headshell is terribile gone wrong.

Now i bought an old airbrushset (old but Not that normal new cheap stuff) Never used.

Now i am looking for an basecoat thinner proof gun with 0,5 nozzle. As cheap as possibile, I won‘t use the Equipment a second time.

Any thoughts?

I've read that its caused by the needle not sitting correctly in the nozzle. I've tried moving it a bit with no luck, and i'm afraid of breaking something.

Can someone tell me how exactly it should be sitting within the nozzle? Its a harder and steenbeck ultra.

I bought this Iwata neo as my first airbrush 5,6years ago, and I dropped it several times. I want to ask that is this fixable, if so, how can I fix it? I noticed this problem because the paint flows badly, and sometimes stuck

What u think 🤔?

My wife bought me my first air brush so i can get started on airbrushing minis and its quite an expensive one that i told her before she bought that i didnt need that for a starter but now that its coming in what do i need to keep this in tip top shape ( i do appreciate her buying me it and am super excited ) thank tou in advance for any suggestions and tips i added a photo of the airbrush

I would also like to add that I make sure that my needle is not bent, have it at the correct psi, and clean after every use. I honestly don’t know what I’m doing wrong at this point, i’m honestly grateful if it sprays paint at all.
