 Subject:  Re: Which airbrush should I buy?List thread.  
  
 Date:  May 7, 2004
 From:  Bill Powers 
I have owned single action air brushes for 30+ years. I don't trust my finger to pull back and push down at the same time! I find there is more to influence the character of the spray than just the air brush. The air pressure, type of paint (Gunze does the best for fine lines but is too soft), amount of thinner and condition of the air brush itself. And of course the capabilities of the modeler behind the brush.

I too am thinking of buying another brush and then I see an exquisitely sprayed model using a Paashe H like mine and realize...it may not be the air brush!
