PointZero Dual-action 7cc Gravity-feed Airbrush Set - .3mm Nozzle

Extremely good investment in a dual action AB. It is reasonably priced, works very well and fits a standard airline. Easy to clean and no clogs. Good starter AB as well as suitable for weekend hobby projects.

I ordered this airbrush about 5 days ago, it shipped quickly, it works great, and it is definitely superior to most airbrush reproductions. This is an upper-mid-range airbrush and its performance is nothing less than superior. I have used Iwata airbrushes that did not perform as well as this one. I am extremely happy with this purchase. Note: When purchasing a hose for this airbrush, make sure that the threaded ends are correct for the compressor that you are using. If you are using a general-purpose compressor, pay attention to the quick-disconnect connectors. Items you will need to keep your airbrush working properly: Compressor Moisture trap Lubrication Having said all of that, I love this airbrush. It is extremely precise, and very durable.

For the money this AB is very good. I use this in painting models. I have a Japanese brand that costs 10 times more. This brush is not as good as it, but about half as good. Lays down a fine line if you use very thin paint at 20 PSI or less. Don't expect to paint a house with this thing. It will do between an 1/8" and a 1/4" pattern very well. You can paint up to about 1/2" pattern My other AB from Japan will do 1/16" or less line, but other than that, the only difference is in the finish of the brush and quality of the material. So great value for the money. If you are a professional painter, you need a better brush. But if you can live with not so fine a line, buy this and save up for the more expensive ones. Comes with standard air fittings for most compressors or other air sources. If you use the canned air, make sure your adapter works with standard fittings. Pros Dual action: means you can adjust both the paint flow amount and air pressure volume through the AB's trigger. Gravity feed means you can use lower PSI. All metal construction. .3mm needle for fine spray pattern Solid with good feel. Cons Not sure where I can find a replacement needle or nozzle. But at this price, I'd just buy another AB! If you need to paint a lot, paint cup is ok but you might have to refill it to complete the job. Cleaning has been no problem. But I do use hobby acrylics and they clean up with 91% Isopropyl Alcohol. Not sure how well this AB will work with other more chemical paints. If you use it with lacquer paints and don't clean it, you are likely to have it freeze up on you and need some a REAL cleaning/Solvent soak. Nothing different here, regardless of cost of the AB. Clean and you are good. Don't clean and yoy wish you had. I have used this for about two months, off and on, with no issues.

I purchased this airbrush on a whim, the Prez needed a toy... This is my second Point Zero airbrush, the first being a side-feed model. While I own several high to very high end airbrushes I am fascinated by the Chinese imports. I keep expectations in line with the price and so far I'm impressed with the value offered by these imports. I just finished using this Point Zero for some detail work on a 1/72 scale model aircraft. As a "research" project I decided to use an import for all the painting. I started with a $19.99 siphon feed from a big tool store. While this did a reasonable job, control was challenging. So lets try the Point Zero. Huge improvement. Fine lines were easy, with a steady, even increase in coverage as the trigger was drawn back. That's more like it. This would be an airbrush someone new to airbrushes might consider. I'm not of the faction that suggests starting with something better ($$$.$$) . In another review I stated that in the beginning I had the same problems with all of my airbrushes regardless of price. While the learning curve for proper operation is not monstrous, it will take time. If, out of frustration, you take a hammer to that beautiful GSI Creos PS770, you're out $245. These things happen...
