Brandon I got the very same Airbrush & Compressor for Christmas . Don't forget to keep the compressor box if you

got the 13 month replacement warranty for 11 bucks . They told me on the compressor if anything breaks (hopefully it want)

to put in in the box and they will exchange it for a brand new one. Donn Yost suggested the airbrush to me , and it is my first

one as well . Congrads !!

[Mr. Moparman]

I have to get an adaptor for my hose as it will not fit the compressor, did you have to get one aswell?

[heatride]

I got my compressor from Harbor Freight and it had a coil black hose with a couple of brass adapters . Black hose

went to the compressor then the brass adapter then the braided hose to the airbrush .

[Mr. Moparman]

Mine's from Harbor Freight too, but I bought mine from a salvage store. It worked so I bought it. I had to wait until Christmas to get it though.

Here is a pic of my setup .

[Mr. Moparman]

Hmmm.... I just bought an adaptor from Paasche so I'll be running next week...

[Dan Helferich]

I've had that same airbrush for years, you'll like it. Those sanding needles will get you into curved areas and next to trim like nothing else. I love them.

You're going to love that Paasche H series airbrush, Brandon. Nice feel, easy to use and clean.

Santa brought me 2 of the new Revell '56 Chevy Del Ray's (Tower Hobby), couple sets of Pegasus wheels, some interior PE, and flocking (Scale Dreams), and a bunch of HOK paint (Coast Airbrush). Oh, and a gift certificate (Rob's Hobby World). The Manx buggy (Tower Hobby) should be delivered on Friday.

[Mr. Moparman]

Thanks guys I havn't tried it yet but it feels good in the hands and I now feel like a serious modeler now that I have an airbrush.

What you you gonna do for a spraybooth? Using an airbrush is much different from using rattle cans - practice!

[Jon Cole]

Merry Christmas everyone! And remember... those firm, clear gift blister packs that are such a pain to open... can be tomorrows clear windshield! Just be sure to check for distortion and minimum scratches!

My neighbor has an old booth in his attic that he is going to let me have.
