guys.....my pieces of advices

for those new to Airbrush, getting a china make AB for a starter will be a wise move. the function and out put is the same, and having a good care of the AB will also last u for a long period of AB joyness.

those branded AB like iwata, olympus, badger are welknown for their brand name and originality, where those taiwan or china make is a copy cat version of it...

for example, the champion on the gunhdam seed competition helb in midvalley june this year, he use the china make AB as well, the result and effect come out great...so y force yourself to get a branded AB while u are still new to this gadget...

for compressor, it's the term that "wat u paid is wat u get"...

those compressor with 3 gallon tank is merely for industry used, like those for bicycle shop or motor shop to pump air....if u r planning to put that compressor in your room, be prepare to kena a GOOD 1 for your housemate or family...coz it gonna be very very noisy....

then for those baby or mini compressor, these will be the most suitable for our modeler as they are less noise and small...but u cant use it for long hour as the compressor will keep on pump when it's on, so chance of overheating is there...but for a modeler this will really be a most suitable compressor coz we dun want to get too much of the paint fume, so a break after 1/2 painting session is recommended...

this is the noise level for iwata cheapest range of compressor....price range at rm650+



their most expensive AB....RM690+

not a problem...however, i had a fren just bought the AB set frm grafiti in timesquare..

so far so good for the compressor, it hav a auto kill off function when the compressor not in use, even with the power on...not a bad choice also

the iwata AB not mine la, just a sample AB in Iwata office, i take the pic using my hp....

wat is pulse air?

iwata office at gombak

oic...it stop when u didnt pull the trigger....

Hmmm....this i ca nhelp.....snap a pic of your compressor, especially on the hose area....then go to jalan kuchai lama frm old klang road....

when u on the way up a step hill road, look at the shop on your left and u can c a shop name "kinki"...

they sell industrial use spray gun, compressor, adjustable regulater bla bla bla.....

they will have the stuff u looking for....roughly rm130+ for the regulater, with moisture trap also.....

dun ask for phone coz i dun hav

if u guys not in the rush, i'll be bringin in some taiwan make airbrush n compressor.....

will update by mid or end of the month

once it's ready, i'll post up my webstore for u guys to view it.....other than airbrush, other modeling tools and gundam as well.....

there is such AB which u can just change the noozle...but it's not maintaince free la...

the needle is keep inside the AB, when cleaning, u cant actually clean it throughly, so when stuck...it's bye bye...dun need to maintain...

maintaince free lo....muahahahaha

btw, those AB is by aztek....

is it yellow color plastic casing 1?

these iwata sure reasonable price!....

u sure your compressor can ON for 2 hrs?

even spramax can onli last 40mins max..then it need to stop to prevent water n overheat..

i mean those set that earlydevilx bought la.....

the compressor i use can open 24 hours also...haha...red square casing type 1....

i do hav 2 frens that used the compressor that grafiti sell...

after 2-3 months....no more using that...reason? the compressor running, n very very low pressure output, then sent to shop for repair..no sparepart...

so think twice.
