Very poor photo, but my money would be on the Iwata Revolution BCR.

 

[stevensivak]

hmmm....

So it could be either the revolution or the eclipse.... they are very similar
What are the advantages of one over the other?

When I review these two guns on their site, I am at a loss as to the pluses and minuses of each...

I would like to be able to spray liquids ranging from tinted watercolors to alkyd enamels- say a bike
from for example....

The blurry picture was taken from a movie that was filmed in one of Italy's premier bicycle factories,
Pinarello, I assume that they were applying secondary accents over the base color.

 

[Mr.Micron]

The Eclipse BCS bottom feed as shown comes standard with a .5 needle /nozzle. It can handle thicker paint at 60PSI vs what most folks use to do art which is 30 PSI and lower with normal to over reduced airbrush paint.

you wouldn't use an airbrush to completely spray a bike frame, spray guns / mini spray guns would be used for that. Yes you could use an airbrush for accents.

as MrMicron has said, for the thicker paint you need a thicker needle - the tinted water colour would only require a smallish needle.

I would like to modify the black frame to look like the black/blue frame:

Web site won't allow me to upload pics....

 

[2Diverse]

Is one of these two what you are talking about?

 

[stevensivak]

Close but no....
Still can't upload the images
every time I go to: attach files, I get
right back to the thread with no attached
files....

 

[2Diverse]

Can you find what you want in an image search of the web? That is where mine came from.

 

[stevensivak]

No- Pinarello offer a custom paint program and it is the first time I saw it..
Why can't I attach an image?????????

Can you post the link to it?

If this is the bike you would like to paint yours as I would suggest a touch up or spray gun. An airbrush doesn't really have the wide coverage that you would need. This is only my opinion though.
