The outfit includes everything you need to hook up to your compressor and spray at 15-60 psi. The siphon-feed airbrush has a .4mm nozzle and adjustable fluid cap, plus three extra replacement O-rings for the fluid cap.

Unlike other airbrushes that have an annoyingly stiff plastic hose, this one includes a 10-ft. flexible braided hose that gives you a full range of motion.

Two 2-ounce glass jars are supplied for mixing and thinning lacquer and stains (many other airbrushes have plastic jars that can react with solvents and finishes). Extra jars are handy for storing partially used mixes.

Lacquer should be strained and thinned 1:1 before spraying. Not recommended for spraying waterbase finishes.

Sunburst

I have been making an A-2 copy and wanted to get a vintage sunburst. I had tried hand application but wasn't happy with it. Saw your video and found the price of your airbrush reasonable and after a few practice runs was able to get a VERY NICE vintage sunburst with water based dyes. Good sturdy item--Thanks

Airbrush Outfit.

This airbrush works pretty well provided that you have properly thinned whatever you are spraying. Comes with an extra glass container w/lid, and additional glass containers are very reasonably priced. I bought a couple extra. The plastic lid/paint supply, being plastic, is a little bit flimsy and you only get one of them. Don't know if replacements can be purchased, but the possibility of breakage is of some concern. It's pretty easy to clean up after use, and it worked well for my purposes.

I Kinda Like It, But...

Still getting used to it...seem to be having problems with controlling the amount of spray-it's a small gap between way to much and just a little bit, no matter how much I fuss with the adjustment, or my compressor air pressure, and sometimes it just sputters & spits. Also the trigger is a bit unpredictable too...

Nice affordable airbrush

This is a very nice little airbrush kit.I ordered an extra glass sealable paint jar and now have three paint jars.All of the seals for the air brush come with it but they include extra seals.All you need is a little air compressor and some fittings and your ready to go.I thought it couldn't hurt to have a little air brush around.The compressors are very cheap to buy and it beats painting with cans.The colortone aerosol is very awesome stuff if you know how to use it but nothing beats having extra spray pressure and a more even coat.

Airbrush

Great little helper although I can't find an adaptor that screws on the UK propellant can that fits the tubing! Sure it is excellent as have similar 'Badger' ones here in UK that are reliable for touchups when you know what you are doing.

good brush for the price

This is a good little brush for the price. Use it for touch ups and bursts works great.

Not really...

I bought two of these brushes and can say that after spending a weekend with them I just bought a professional brush to do the job and set these aside for random hobby tasks. and after having one hose end fitting blow off the air hose at 40 psi, What this brush lacks is the fine adjustments of a more expensive brush.
When dialed down to almost no material, the spray pattern was still just too wide and messy for the 1/2", black to clear fade-in I needed to accomplish(much harder than a sunburst!). I'm sure I could have done it with this brush if I wanted to bad enough and this brush is all many hobbyists would require but for precision detail work I would have to say spend the extra money and get something a little more substantial.
If you want to shoot a water-based finish, try something with a universal needle & tip around 75mm that can shoot more viscous materials, be dialed from pencil lead thickness to a wide cone and be easily disassembled for easy clean-up. This brush is far better than any other brush I looked at in the price range so don't overlook this if you are a do-it-yourselfer that isn't planning on heavy usage.
I gave this 2 star instead of three because one air hose was defective(but repairable) and the spout on the feed-jar cap are molded into the plastic cap unlike higher quality ones and is likely to fail some time down the road

Airbrush Royale :)

Sure you may pay more in money in another airbrush, but I'm not any airbrush artist, so for my repairs it is just perfect, comes with a really nice hose too. Excellent choice for making sunburst around F holes...
