10/4. that just gives me an excuse josh.[;)][:D] punks are aggrevating. sorry to hear that. later.
I was also looking for my 1st decent airbrush. My first airbrush was a Testors plastic cheepie. I was leaning towards the Aztec because of the interchangeable tips. After reading these forums I decided to go with the Iwata Revolution. The price was very reasonable and think I will be happy with it. I’ll let you all know.
the iwata will definetly be a great purchase. let me know how it works and i may just order me one soon. later.
yeah, youl love it
I have one of those Revolution airbrushes, and I like it quite a bit. It does the job quite well, and I even managed to put a freehand cammo job on a 1/72 Spitfire with it. Not much it can’t do.
I still want an illustration airbrush though.
Hey Chris, does your wife get irritated with you about buying more airbrushes than you need?
As for me even thou most of these people said no to aztec,I got one.I am very well plased with it.1 for the interchangible nozzles the others reqiure a lot of t.l.c. with the needles.The nozzles are inexpinivse and are easy to clean.2 a lot hobby shops have parts for this type of air gun and can be double action depending what type you get .
For me it is more econoimical,I have found that places like hobby lobby has a lot of
pieces for the aztec and at a good price.Digger[:)][C):-)][:)]
Yeah, I used to believe in Aztek. Untill this![:O][:(!][B)][:O]

aztek parts are fscking expensive: nozzle: $15 compared to $8 badger needles. why do sailsmen always ttry to get us to buy aztek?
well I will have to wait and see with my aztec if these problem accure.As for the nozzles I can buy them for $8 as well at hobby lobby.Digger[:)][C):-)][:)]
The Aztek I use to use had the same nozzle attached to it for 2 years (the tan coloured one), was pulled apart only once to be cleaned, and sprayed everything, enamels, acrylics and laquers.
Diggeraone, DO NOT run any laquers through your Aztek or else it WILL die a loathsome death. Thats what killed mine after a month of laquerage.
Second thing about Azteks, DO NOT backflush them, or else you WILL end up with paint all through the air/paint mech, and wind up having the same problem most have had.
Other than that, mine worked a treat for more models than I can remember.
They ain’t that bad, and I’d gladly buy another if the price here was cheaper[:)]
Tweety1,thanks for advise.I only use enamels any laquers I have allways used in spary cans or brush.Laquers have a tendience to gum up or gel.Back flushing is only done once nozzel is cleaned,then I q-tip the rest clean.Digger
