Hi there all forum members. This is my first post. I wanted my first to be different,but the complexity of getting started has kept turning me round. I mean to say the field of airbrushes and compressors is vast with a multitude of options.
I thought, therefore, to ask the following as your answers may very well expedite the issue for me.
Rather than ask what sort of airbrush I need, I though I would approach this from a different angle, that of listing what sort of projects I would like to attempt over the next few years, and what guns / brushes and relevant compressor will see me through those types of projects.
AS context, I would like to be able to use both enamels and acrylics.
1) laying excellent base coats of primer on metal and plastic objects size up to 120 x 120 x 120 volume.
2) Be able to lay down and finish to a high standard a variety of paints on those primed surface.
3) Ditto above, but for objects increasing in size to . Ie 500 x 500 x 500mm
4) ditto above but for a car panel, to enable me to affect a small touch up to respraying the whole panel.
So far, as ii understand it, I will need different guns with different needle sizes to be able to accomplish these things. The guns you recommend should specify the air compressor for me.
I’m sure there is a lot I have not considered, but i'm posting out of frustration as would like to start making some little progress!
Thanks for reading and I hope you can help me hit the ground running!!
