PointZero Single-Action 22cc Siphon-Feed Airbrush Set - .8mm Nozzle

This is a nice item for the price.I wish they gave more jars.It would help, but you can buy them the pen works nice , but it does get clogged

It works well for price point. I wasn't expecting too much but I used this brush to spray some engine enamel I thinned out and it worked very well. It may not be the highest build quality of air brush but it can get the job done and it's easy to use. I'm going to try it with some reduced 2 stage automotive paint for some blending and touch ups next.

What a delightful little airbrush. It's very comfortable to use, although that spring may get tedious on really long sessions, but overall it's well worth the measly thirteen bucks I paid for it. I now own... let's see. Two cheap double-action brushes, one expensive double-actions, an expensive single-action pistol-trigger brush... all gravity-feed... and this little suction-feed sweetie. It's not siphon, it's suction. Siphon is a different concept. I bought an airbrush about fifty years ago that was almost identical to this one. Maybe a titch more chrome. I wish I still owned that one, but alas. Now I own another one similar to it so all's right in the world. Suction-feed single-action airbrushes like this are exactly what most of us are really looking for when we go looking for an airbrush. Very few among us really have any great use for double-action airbrushes... and even those people would be well satisfied with a little fancier single-action than this one, with a flow rate limiting knob on the back like my pistol-trigger brush has. These brushes make color changes instant; there's no fussing around with cleaning any internal mix apparatus, just drop the bottle, shoot a little water from your water bottle (or acetone bottle, if it's summer and you're outdoors - nothing can argue with acetone!), then plug in the next color and go. Color change in fifteen seconds easy. And cleanup? It's hard to make it any simpler than this. Under only the most extreme circumstances is there any need to disassemble any part of the brush, and then only the two-piece nozzle deally where you adjust the paint density. Which you can, of course, do "live", while you paint. The body of the brush always remains intact and complete. Worst case? Throw it in the trash and order another. It cost thirteen bucks, for the love of Pete. That's the price of two sit-down cheeseburgers. Oh, but scavenge what you can from this one in case you ever need parts. Needles? Forget 'em. Nozzles? Forget 'em. Needle protectors? Backflushing? Cranky index finger? Forget 'em. Go simple. True, you can't show it off to your buds to buy yourself cred... until they realize that you're painting like a champeen with a thirteen-dollar airbrush. Really. If you're a single- or double-action airbrush user, toss a few bucks at this. You have nearly nothing to lose. I love it when I can do good stuff on the cheap. 8) Oh, by the way... ? Yes. You CAN spray cheap acrylics from WalMart with it... and they DO work nicely. You have to learn how to thin them down for spraying, but... yes. You absolutely can do that. That's how I paint my military and car models, and my wife's dollhouse stuff.

Airbrush works as made but needs some modifications to work well. Outlet hole for needle to cone delivery is plain drilled hole. Should be an oval cut deep into needle to deliver paint to inside of cone properly. I was able to do this final finish machining, but most will not be able to. Now it delivers paint proportional to cone opening as it should.

I have only used it twice to spray some Duracoat; but the little gun did a good job

Leaks air everywhere and in every way. I completely drained a new can of Propel trying to get the can adapter on and try to get it to stop spray air out the sides and the top of the adapter. (BTW: I do have experience doing this. I only bought this on because my old one's regulator was missing.) It is nice that this unit comes with adapter to convert it for use with an airbrush compressor. It would be nicer if it did not leak air out of all those fittings too. It did leak slow enough that I could paint with it. It atomized the paint very evenly and was easy to adjust by turning the nozzle. However, my compressor had to repressurise ever 2 or 3 minutes even when the airbrush was not in use. The waste of time? That's because I had to go to the trouble of returning it and writing this review.

This airbrush works really well even though I neglect proper cleaning.

I already have access to compressed air. So, the little syphon airbrush wasn't a big cost outlay. I bought the airbrush mostly for touch-up and rust prevention when drilling holes in things in need of fixing or fabricating. I recently drilled two 1/2" holes in the bucket of my snowblower for mounting a 20lb. steel plate for front end ballast to keep the nose down. I painted the exposed metal from the drilling with Husqvarna Orange RUSTOLEUM thinned 5:3 with acetone. The coats went on very nice and focused as compared to a rattle can job. I dried each coat with a heat gun. I managed to bang out the whole painting process with no overspray, a minimal amount of drying time wait between coats, and no-fuss clean up! Highly recommended for precision touch-ups and such compared to a spray paint can.

Works fine with low pressure pump, but when the pressure is high it will stuck, so always keep the pressure below 30 bars, or use only low pressure pump
