Airbrush
Hi all - Looking for an airbrush that is reasonable and wont cost me too much.
Ive been recommended the Iwata Neo, but at £60 its a little too steep for the few shells i paint in the year. Are there any options below this tier? Last edited by PaulRotheram; 03-10-2016 at 01:05 PM.

Do Not buy the Neo - it's absolute rubbish IMO.
Buy a £10/ £15 0.3mm one on eBay (usually listed as Nail art etc) - it won't last too long unless you look after it nicely and keep anything solvent based away from it. Easily as good as the Neo. I bought the Custom CS and it's fantastic - but I would not buy the Neo again - ended up binning it.

I too started with the Iwata Neo and after a month painting with it, i ended up buying an Iwata Kustom CS, and two years into painting, my Neo is in the bin, Unfortunately for quality and reliability you are gonna be paying for it.
If your going to use in a few time a years for a number of years, best just to look for a decent second hand brush.

 !Will any of them do, or do you use a specific seller? I've had a cheap one that came with my compressor. Its done 3 shells great, then been stored for 6 months. I came to use it last night ( stored cleaned ) and the consistency is all over the place. no 'feel' to it any more, so i can only assume its goosed!

I have 2 brushes I mainly use - an Iwata Eclipse and a BD181 (I think).
The Iwata was >£100 while the BD was <£30. If I could only keep one, it would probably be the BD. Got it from here: - http://www.airbrush-pro.co.uk/contents/en-uk/d27.html Also, lots of good tips on this page
