How do I know what size airbrush nozzle to get?
The nozzle, also known as the tip, and the needle size of the airbrush will determine the amount of paint that can be sprayed through it. Sizes often vary between 0.10mm and 0.5mm on airbrush to 0.6 and 1.5mm on small spray guns….The various sizes include:
- Fine – 0.2mm.
- Medium – 0.35mm.
- Heavy – 0.5mm.

What PSI should I use for airbrushing?

Does airbrush needle size matter?
What Size Needles Do Airbrushes Take? Airbrush needles typically vary in size from 0.1mm to 0.5mm. The smaller airbrush needle sizes (0.1 to 0.2) will lend themselves much better to fine detail work, and the larger needle sizes (0.4 to 0.5) will allow much better large-area coverage.
Are airbrush parts interchangeable?

Is master airbrush any good?
5.0 out of 5 stars Trust me, its worth it. You get a gravity fed dual action airbrush (you want this), a quiet compressor with a moisture trap ( you need this), hose, pressure gauge to change psi and a little stand thing to put on the compressor for your airbrush. For the price it is, you want this.
How much does a Master G22 airbrush cost?
I saw a Master G22 on E-Bay, and bid on it. And I got it for $26.50. It’s their lowest price gravity fed double action brush and sells on their site for $39. Delivery from TCP was quick. I won the bid on Sunday and got the airbrush on Tuesday. Here is what was in the nice plastic case.
What kind of hose does a master airbrush use?
The Master has the same hose threads as the Iwata, and I was going to buy an adapter to fit my Badger hose. But, thanks to the inclusion of the barbed hose adapter, I found that ordinary aquarium tubing works just fine. It pushes on securely to the airbrush and the Badger compressor adapter.
How do you remove the nozzle from a Don’s airbrush?
It is removable and adjustable with a jeweler’s screwdriver. A special wrench is supplied to remove the nozzle. It’s a loose fit, but it works. This is one of those really tiny nozzles that would be easy to lose or break. The little O ring that the arrow points to isn’t such a great idea. It’s there to seal the nozzle to the body.
