too-cool Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Yep, I have 2...and the 3rd one should be next year or pretty soon... 1st is a Badger 150 2nd and current is a 360 and the next one will probably be an Iwata hp-c+ (if the money is there...as well as the need for it ;-) ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dave Williams Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Used a Badger 150 for many years, then tried the Aztek 470. Now my main brush is an Iwata Eclipse CS, but I still use the Aztek for acrylics (mainly clear flat and gloss coats) and the Badger for metallics like Alclad (so I can use the syphon feed jar to prevent the metal particles that settle out in the bottom from clogging the brush internals).

ElectroSoldier Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 I got an AB-128 Double Action Airbrush from www.everythingairbrush.com/ Havent had the chance to use it yet but seems to be a nice quality piece of kit. Not what you would expect for £19.99 ex shipping Quote Link to post Share on other sites

snowman473 Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Badger 250 and Paasche VL . Badger easier to clean. Paasche nice handling tool. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
canadian_camo Posted December 20, 2005 Author Share Posted December 20, 2005 It's awesome to see how many people that have an airbrush and I'm amazed at how many have 2 even 3 ABs too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Les / Creative Edge Photo Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Currently I own a 20 year old Badger 150 deluxe kit. Though it still works well it's worn out in ways and can't be trusted to give top notch results. I may send it to Badger to overhaul one day. But a couple of months ago I bought the Badger Anthem 155, which I LOVE. It is a great air brush that is easy to use and keep clean. I would reccomend it any day to anyone looking for a quality double action air brush. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
D_IcarUS_ Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I've a 360 and a 175 Crescendo. Both from Badger. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Heater Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I have a Grapho-Tech -135 for general purpose work like clear coats and metalizers, and an Iwata HP-B, which i recently brought back from the dead. I thought that the AB was un-repairable, and ready to bin it....when after 2 years of having it decommisioned, i suddenly realized that the entire problem of the AB was a loose rubber band in the air valve!!!!! Learning outcome...never bin a tool...it can always be brought back to life :unsure: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Random Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 It seems like loadsa people have redundant airbrushes! I've only got the one, a single action, external mix jobbie, which I bought myself out of my allowance,(I'm 13) and I REALLY DONT LIKE!! Im saving up for a double action, gravity fed jobbie, (or just gravity fed!). Any chance of anyone sticking their old and unused brushes up on ebay, with a buy it now price?! NO THIS IS NOT A 'BEGGING POST' AND IM NOT ASKING FOR FREE STUFF!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Yuri Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I have 2: an Aztek and a Badger 200 (reserve). Should I vote twice? :) Btw I'm considering getting also a fine line airbrush for detailed work, but it's not so cheap... Yuri Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bennygmanuk Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Technically I own an Iwata Eclipse CS. I say technically because I only mananged to fondle it briefly before my girlfriend wrapped it and put it under the Christmas tree <_< . In the meantime I have a compressor which I can switch on and err, watch (and listen to). Roll on Sunday! Steve. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie Cheslo Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I love my trusty Badger 150 Dual Action. Two nozzles, two needles. Easy to use, easy to clean up. B) <_< [/i]J.C. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wing_Nut Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I own 3. My first, which is out of service, was a badger 200. Second was a Aztek. Now I use an Iwata Eclipse CS. Wow, I have traveled the same road: Badger 150, then Aztek and currently an Iwata HP-C. I can't imagine not using an airbrush after using one for so many years.

Miccara Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Here's an ugly can of worms for you... You just can't do the job correctly without an airbrush. You're just kidding yourself.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tbell Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I own two; a Badger 155 siphon feed (used mainly for NMF), and an Iwata HP-CR Revolution gravity feed for everyday and fine work. Cheers, Tony Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The_Animal Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I own an airbrush, a Paasche VL and an aircompressor. Bought it in August. Unfortunately, haven't used it yet, because needless to say, I still need a moisture trap (necessary for airbrushing in soggy British Columbia). :blink: NO! NOT SELLING!
