What happens after you buy an airbrush?
 
An airbrush works by passing a stream of fast moving (compressed) air through a venturi, which creates a local reduction in air pressure (suction) that allows paint to be pulled up from an interconnected reservoir at normal atmospheric pressure.
The high velocity of the air atomizes the paint into very tiny droplets as it blows past a very fine paint-metering component.
The paint is carried onto paper or other surface. The operator controls the amount of paint using a variable trigger which opens more or less a very fine tapered needle that is the control element of the paint-metering component.
An extremely fine degree of atomization is what allows an artist to create such smooth blending effects using the airbrush.                                                                                                                       
Badger Model 350 Single Action Airbrush Image
 Badger Model 350 Single Action Airbrush

This model is an external-mix type. The air and fluid are mixed in the airstream, outside the airbrush. This makes the Badger Model 350 Single Action Airbrush a reliable tool for spraying thicker paints and glazes because the air keeps flowing without clogs.

The 350 has a molded nylon body with a precision metal air cap and needle assemblies. It includes a 2 oz (59 ml) jar with cover, a ¾ oz (22 ml) jar, a wrench, and an instruction booklet. Medium ¼" to 1½" air tip.

Paasche Model H Single Action Airbrush.

The H is easy to own and use — just set the fluid control for line, shade, or stipple. It's the perfect tool for airbrushing jobs that don't require the sophistication of a double action brush.

This airbrush comes complete with accessories or by itself. Accessories include a ¼ oz color cup, wrenches, a hanger, and a lessons booklet.

Order the Paasche Model H in any one of three sizes and, by purchasing the other size air caps and color-adjusting parts, you can change easily from one size to another.

 Iwata RG-3 Spray Gun

Iwata's RG-3 is a miniature gravity/side feed spray gun, which produces remarkable atomization with precise control. Its 4 oz (118 ml) stainless steel gravity cup uses all of the paint in the cup and can work even with small amounts of paint. Its side-mounted gravity feed cup rotates, allowing for spraying horizontally, vertically, or underneath surfaces.

This mini spray gun is ideal for detail automotive touch up, large studio work, and murals. The spray pattern is from 1/8" to 2-1/2" (3 mm to 64 mm). It requires a 2.5 HP compressor or larger to operate at peak performance.
