Is this one good for airbrushing model airplanes and other small projects?

It should be. The air requirements for airbrushing are less than those for driving nails.

Iam not an airbrusher but this can handle hi-pressure/low volumne work with ease. I use mine in my woodshop for shooting brads with absolutely no problems!

BTW. I forgot to mention that I LOVE this handy compressor. Lightweight and very quite in operation.

It should work IF you are not using a great volume of air. I use this with a nail gun (brad and finish nailer and staples) as well as adding air to auto tires (which does use quite a volume of air).

No, it only puts out 0.51 SCFM at 40 psi, so not enough volume for almost all spray guns (it would be ok for an airbrush). Look for a compressor that is specifically stated to work for painting (this one is for filling bike tires, running staple guns and low duty cycle nailers and such that have moderate to high pressure requirements, but have low CFM requirements).

Yes, I use it for airbrush tattoos and spray tanning. You just need to have different guns.

Sorry, I sent it back since I wanted something to blow out parts, etc.; however, that said, from what I saw of the item, it was well made and perfectly suited for the purpose of using with paint, solvents, so I would say it would probably work painting small areas.

I don't know. This is my first airbrush and I have only used it once. I am a pure amateur.

yes you can for years guys have used bottom feed airbrushs also try learning to use dual action you can see how to,s on utube. hope this helps good luck.

The Paint will work perfect on Plastic Models, you can Brush Paint or muse a Air Brush.

I would not hesitate to use it to spray paint a large graphitti. There would be enough paint in the hopper to paint a whole line of train cars!

Yes it would work but if you want to do this more then like for 1 novelty event I would get a better compressor.. I was able to get through very small projects with it but it overheats quickly and spits water... I broke down and bought a better compressor.. the airbrush is fine.. works well.. so if you are just using it for something really small then you can probably get away with using this combination.. if you want something more durable for bigger projects the airbrush is good but get a different compressor.

The unit I purchased is a single piston unit (as pictured). This is my first airbrush system. I paint 1/72 and 1/35 scale models. I have only used one of the 3 air brushes. I found that I learned to use it without difficulty. The compressor provides (for my use) ample air at a steady rate. I would expect a twin piston would be more suitable for tasks requiring more CFM's of air.

I just got it a few days ago for my airbrush and, so far, it works fine for that. I don't know about it's long term reliability but internet reports of that are encouraging.

I have a airbrush compressor that is 1/5 HP oil-less and quite quiet. It will overheat after like an hour or so, but works great, just make sure if you get a small compressor that you do NOT get one without a tank on it. It should look like 2 tanks on top of each other. If you get one without a air tank on the bottom you will get inconsistent air pressure as well as overheat it pretty quick. Mine is a silver motor on top of a black tank and is pretty small has a moisture trap and air hose. Also this airbrush is probably not going to be best suited for you if you are going to be painting miniatures. The needle is large which allows quite a bit of paint to come out making it very difficult to paint small details. I would recommend the badger renegade krome. The patriot seems to work well with putting out a lot of paint. I use my patriot for laying down kandy colors over a larger surface than a miniature. The krome will produce hair size lines, or like inch size lines, with the 105 patriot you will likely not get any finer of a line than a skinny marker would give you.

It works fine when I use it but I don't use it everyday to see how long it lasts. It's not professional grade if that's what you're looking for, but sufficient for the average consumer who knows how to use an airbrush machine.

Don't see why not. For small projects/hobby-painting or limited duration I think it would be great! Again, for industrial/commercial apps, or heavy-duty use on a daily basis, I (personally) would go with more muscle. Never tried it though as I have, and use electric power sprayers for the type of work I do (homeowner-decks, fence, yard ornaments.) A sweet compressor though...that should be effective for limited duty.

I have used this compressor with a finish nailer on a small home improvement project and it worked fine. I would not use for any big projects or with tools that require a lot of air.

My first questions would be how big is the doll and what type of paint do you use. If they are, say the same size as a Barbie doll to about 24" tall doll, this will be perfect. This air-brush comes with the .2 needle {for fine detail work} the .3 needle {for mid range} and .5 needle {large} I've sprayed both enamels and acrylics. Easy clean up, and needle change. The kit does come with everything you need, EVERYTHING. I myself use the .2 needle most of the time for my 1/48th scale model painting{styrene plastic} for camouflage,and some smaller pieces. I did purchase a second air-brush for clear coating. Fewer headaches, {less chance of cross contamination of paint} less chance of clogging. I do like all my Master series of air-brushes. But to be fair, I think the Point Zero air-brush is better. Model # PZ-260XS also a complete kit .2,.3,.5 needles,nozzles and cups. This can also do the same job, same connection as the Master. I prefer the Point Zero, softer trigger, better control, smoother paint flow, handles paint changes easier. At the price, and like I said having 2 {1 for painting,1 for clear coats} is a better way to go. IF YOU CLEAR COAT. If you just need one, I'd say the Point Zero kit. I hope this is not tooo long winded an answer, and does help. One side note if you need to purchase a compressor, be sure to get one with a reservoir tank. All the best of luck.

Yes, absolutely, on both questions. If the beginner has the ability to tackle that model, then this glue will be no hindrance. It's far easier to use the brush than to control the amount of glue from a tube. There is no waste, since this glue is very thin you can't put too much on unless you really try.
