mechamickey Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 Hello everyone First I should say I'm a newbie to this hobby , so I have a lot to learn. Just finished my first model the other day a 69 Corvette, now working on a Mustang fastback. My Question is, The other day at Wal-mart they were selling the Kuston Kolor Spray Paint Air Compressor for $10.00. Is This air compressor worth getting to learn how to spray paint or should I wait? They didn't have any paint there and I haven't noticed any hobby store around here carrying this line? Right now I just been using normal spray paint cans Testors.

The reason it is cheap and there is no paint is because valspar has droped the line. That means no more paint, brushes stencils, air compresors ect. I think if you have a harbor frieght near your u should send the 100 bucks and get thier air brush compressor. Dont have it myself but have heard good things. But its all up to you. Maybe to start out with the cheap one and get the realy good ones that people advise hear.
evilone Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 dont get it its ###### if you want to do airbrushing go get a starter setup it should hit you about $100-$150 warning about airbrushing you will get hooked there is more selection on airbrushing paints then there are spray paint

You can even mix your own colors and more. you can even spray glitter to resemble falke but thats for when you get the hang of it. If you ever do want to spray glitter though i suggest contacting evilone as he can help you with any questions you have. He is what we call the King of flake and of course hearses
