Which air brushes do you guys reccomend?I'm sick of this Badger 150 splattering pc. of crap I've torn it down soaked and cleaned new nozzles new needles, I know one site has buy one get one but made in china I'm very unsure about that I would rather spend the money for something that is known to work well.Thanks for any help.While I'm here Smitty did you take a look at those waterproof bags?

if you have the money or can find a good coupon i woudl reccomend an iwata.... they are pricey and parts can be pricey....... but they are worth the money... their eclipse and revolution series are really good... i have an older hp-b but it has a thimble sized cup. it's the only down fall to this brush.

if i ever get the money up i want a newer one with a larger cup maybe with a 1oz cup or larger. i don't paint many lures unless i buy a kit here and there. but i paint rc bodies for friends and the season's going to be starting soon.

All i can say is that i have been through all of the above and just got a Iwata Eclips and it the best you can buy for the money

Get a ACMoore 50% off coupon and they are about 100 bucks

Good luck

I bought mine at AC Moore with a 60% off coupon. Some AC Moore stores do carry them.

I had a little Oops with my 25 year old Devilbiss so I asked the missus to pick up as many needle O rings as she could get from the dude I used to buy spares from.
I haven't bought from him in about 15 years.
He only had one.
I'll be up the creek when it goes so I started looking to replace my airbrush.
Devilbiss DAGR is what I want. Anybody here use one????
