i use the neo .35mm , i broke the nozzle so i used a cheap chinese .3 nozzle, it is slightly thicker at the tip so i drilled a slightly bigger hole in the air cap to improve the air flow, and now i can use the cheap £1 nozzles from ebay, just be carefull if your gonna drill the cap , make sure it is centered

hmmmm , i wouldnt really reccomend much of either of your questions or comments..... not saying your wrong or ami trying to be being disrespectful, but i mean even though these are regarded as more "budget brushes" they are still precision instruments,,,,, normally some brushes may take a nozzle from the same manufacturer(for instance, badger does a conversion kit for the velocity taking it from a .21 to a .3) but i wouldnt really recomend putting any parts from other manufacturers..... as for drilling.... you guys knock yourself out but the most ill do is maybe cut a bit of spring off or glue some rubber to my trigger..... drilling this and that could ruin your brush

well personally i wouldnt change or drill a more expensive ab, but i refuse to pay the close to the same price for a nozzle and needle as the ab cost, and its basically a knock off with neo stamped on really.
so with my neo wich i still use everyday ill drill it till it looks like swiss cheese if it still works

I actually have been using the Neo and I love it. It seems to flow smoothly.
