Siphon feed options for Badger 360

Is there any color cups that can be used with the Badger 360? How about a siphon cap that fits Testor 1/2 oz bottles used in the Model Master line paints? Where can I get these? Couldn’t find these parts looking online.

Maybe Mike V can answer :wink:

Any of the glass or plastic bottles made by Badger, Paasche or Thayer & Chandler will fit that siphon tube. I don’t know if there are any caps that will fit the Model Master bottles though as they are fairly small.
If I can find one online I’ll let you know. [;)]

i have seen small lids that i think would fit perfectly on the testors bottles at my LHS , i’ll have another look next time i go there and i’ll check who makes them. probably sometime later this week.

I found these on Micro-Mark’s web site that will probably work, although I don’t know why you would want to spray straight out the bottle like that.

These are $7.95 which is quite expensive.

It’s because i have many empty bottles of those sizes from all the paint I’ve used up. I haven’t used a bottle for spraying for so long now, but looks like I’ll be using them again with the Badger 360.

I see. For the price of those from Micro-Mark it would be cheaper to just go to a craft store and buy the 1 oz. glass jar assemblies that Badger and Paasche sell. The Paasche ones sell for $2.99 from Dixie Art so I would imagine they would run about $4 or so from a craft store which is about half of what the cap I posted sells for alone. Of course if you like the smaller jar size of the empty MM jars then go ahead and get the cap I showed you.

ok i just went to my lhs and the caps they have are a faskolor #40242 made by a compagny called parma international , they’re 9.29cdn each or 18.99cdn for 3 part#40243
