I've had Badger IL dual action airbrushes for 20 years. They work great and if you ever need to change the needle out it's easy. Cleaning doesn't take long at all.

As far as compressors go, I bought a 5 gal. tank and put a moisture trap on it. I'd spend the money for a good trap. Nothing's worse than painting and water starts coming through with your paint or when you are just pushing down for air.

Paints and cleaner I regularly use are Createx. I do costume work for dance mostly. It works well, pre-thinned so you don't need to dilute it. I've also used Badger brand, they are good too. Laquer based paints will just take more time in cleaning your airbrush.

Hope this helps,

[QUOTE="Geo, post: 160412, member: 331"] I've had Badger IL dual action airbrushes for 20 years. They work great and if you ever need to change the needle out it's easy. Cleaning doesn't take long at all. As far as compressors go, I bought a 5 gal. tank and put a moisture trap on it. I'd spend the money for a good trap. Nothing's worse than painting and water starts coming through with your paint or when you are just pushing down for air. Paints and cleaner I regularly use are Createx. I do costume work for dance mostly. It works well, pre-thinned so you don't need to dilute it. I've also used Badger brand, they are good too. Laquer based paints will just take more time in cleaning your airbrush.:) Hope this helps, [/QUOTE]
